The powers of the Residents' Assembly are to advise the Governing Board and to make proposals for approval by the Governing Board. It also has the power to grant and terminate the right to residence in Auroville. The Act prescribes that a Working Committee of the Residents' Assembly shall assist the Residents' Assembly and the Governing Board in discharging their duties under the Act.
A Residents Assembly Service (RAS) helps in organizing and facilitating the meetings.
