===MEXICO===

In early May of this year, Anandi of AVI Argentina actively participated in the Interfaith Conference held in Guadalajara, Mexico. With 2,400 participants, it turned out to be the second largest interfaith gathering in the history of the Americas, and featured possibly the largest inclusion of Indigenous Peoples in any conference in the history of the Americas. Apart from this, Anandi gave presentations and
workshops on Auroville in San Cristóbal de las Casas (Chiapas), at Casa Plena, and joined the World Poetry Movement, reading poems in Spanish and Nahuatl, the native language of Mexico.

===GERMANY===

Friederike writes us the following about the annual gathering of AVI Germany members and friends (https://www.auroville.de/index.php/81-news/231-jahrestreffen-2015) that took place from May 14-17: “Some 80 people participated, more than a third of them being young people who have either already spent a year in Auroville as ‘weltwaerts’ volunteers and want to stay in contact, or who are getting prepared for their service in different village-related Auroville activities, starting August this year. The meeting saw a balanced mix of talks (“Harmony in dissonance – the world as an unfolding of consciousness” and “Yoga psychology – A tool to know oneself”), presentations, reports from Auroville, group discussions and personal encounters, meditations, yoga classes and outdoor activities.

'''One of the gathering’s highlights was the bestowal of a quality seal to AVI Germany for its government-supported volunteers programme ‘Weltwaerts’, handed over by a representative of the official certifying organisation.''' The gentleman spoke warmly about his and his colleagues’ deep appreciation for the excellent preparation of the examination documents and the exceptionally high performance of the comparatively small organisation AVI Germany in running the complex programme entirely on an honorary basis. He seemed very impressed and uplifted by the Saturday evening programme, which had been prepared by the young people and featured an ex-volunteer giving a tabla performance and future volunteers presenting themselves with funny little sketches and songs.

The evening programme was rounded off by a very special event: The father of an ex-volunteer guided us in dancing medieval group dances together. It demanded harmonious collaboration of our two brain hemispheres and a good coordination of legs and arms, and was great fun. To quote one of our ‘newcomers’, a future volunteer: Apart from all the many important things we have learned, was the fact that there was no stress involved in presenting ourselves; it was more like a family celebration, a wedding or a big birthday.

'''May we never forget to elebrate our togetherness in our collective yoga!" ''' Just before the gathering, AVI Germany’s interesting and very comprehensive 40-page newsletter came out. It can be obtained via info (at) auroville.de

===[[Entity::FRANCE]]===

The evening of Thursday 26 May saw a well-attended gathering of interested people, brought together for a Round Table at Forum 104 in Paris by AVI France’s president, Nadia Loury. During this ‘Round Table’, Gilles Boeuf , biologist and president of the ‘Muséum national d'Histoire Naturelle, and philosopher Patrick Viveret hosted a lively debate with each other and the 170-member audience on the need of a growth of consciousness in mankind and the formation of new societies, regularly referring back during the talks to the concrete example of Auroville. Nadia tells us that the severity of the topic met with a lot of positive energy and optimism and Aurovilians present, such as Gilles G, Marie Claire B, Mayaura and Claude J, along with active AVI France members, added valuable contributions to the discussion. Also Janine Morisset, Mother’s granddaughter, was there.

===[[Entity::NETHERLANDS]]===

In their recent newsletter the Dutch AVI team informed us, among other things, about their coming General Assembly on June 7th that may see the formation of a '''new Board team,''' and where members will be informed about the functioning & plans of the centre, recent developments and various specific projects in Auroville; about the successful Acres for Auroville campaign, the coming AUM-cum-AVI meeting in Woodstock, and a funding request for a Russian Peace bell in the International Zone. The letter also talks about dedicated AVI members and friends putting sections of Sri Aurobindo’s epic poem on music and chanted accompanied by guitar or orchestra. In this context it mentions a Savitri Music Trust in Bengaluru. The newsletter can be downloaded from www.auroville-int-ned.nl/

===CANADA===

AVI Canada remains loyal to its Vision Future project and informs us that the Canadian Centre, in collaboration with AVI France, Sweden and Germany, has by now accumulated some 37% of the total amount needed for the housing deposit of the current candidate. See also https://www.facebook.com/aumconference

===[[USA]]===

The USA teams continue to prepare for the coming AUM/AVI meeting to be held from 20 – 23 August 2015 in Woodstock, NY. The event is hosted by Matagiri; see www.facebook.com/aumconference for details and/or

'''[[Entity::Working Committee]] report for May 2015

{{TOC}}

Main topics dealt with in May 2015.

'''1. Meeting with GB members [[Dr. Karan Singh]], Ms. Ameeta Mehra and Ms. Aster Patel in New Delhi on May 6th. The following topics were discussed.

:*'''Restructuring the TDC.''' We informed the GB members about the letter sent by the Working Committee to the TDC, to the TDC Advisory Council and to the members who participated in the retreat on the town planning theme, requesting their views on the reconstitution of the TDC, and about our intention to collate their suggestions, discuss them with Shri .B.V. Doshi and then make a proposal to the Governing Board. (see the April report of the Working Committee).

:*'''NTDA proposal.''' Dr. Doshi has proposed that Mr. Soli Sorabjee be contacted for a legal opinion on the dangers and desirability of having an NTDA for the Auroville area. Dr. Karan Singh disagreed with the proposal as this is not a legal issue per se, and supported a proposal to request Dr. M.S. Swaminathan to give his views, after hearing a delegation from Auroville consisting of members of the Working Committee and the NTDA Task Force.

:*'''Sale of outlying lands.''' In view of the decision of the Governing Board made in its March meeting “The Board decided to step up the efforts to obtain permission to sell lands outside the Master Plan area, the proceeds of which will be used to exclusively fund the purchase of lands inside the Master Plan area.” we requested Dr. Karan Singh to write to the PMO office with the request to take a decision on the proposal made by the Foundation to the PMO Office some years ago that the Foundation be authorized to sell outlying lands on the condition that the sale proceeds be used for the purchase of lands within the city and greenbelt areas.

:*'''Appeal against decisions of working groups.''' Dr. Karan Singh disagreed with a proposal that, similar to the provision contained in the Admission or Termination of Persons in the Register of Residents Regulations, a working group consisting of members of the Governing Board and some selected Aurovillians be formed to function as an appeal body against decisions of working groups. He proposes that Auroville create its own internal appeal body.

'''2. Meeting with members of the Envisioning Committee Ms. Ameeta Mehra, Ms. Aster Patel and Sir Mark Tully in New Delhi on May 5th. (Absent: Ms. Mallika Sarabhai).'''
The Envisioning Committee has been constituted by the Governing Board in its August meeting to prepare for the 50th anniversary celebrations of Auroville, and its constitution was reconfirmed in its meeting of March. It was agreed:

:*That on behalf of the Envisioning Committee, the Working Committee will publish a call for ideas and suggestions in the News and Notes and on the Auronet and will send a note to those involved in the organization of previous festivals as well as to the Auroville International Centers.

:*That the Working Committee will consolidate the proposals that come in, ask for details where required and ask for provisional budgets, if possible; and forward these to the Envisioning Committee

:*That a follow-up meeting of the members of the Envisioning Committee and representatives of the Working Committee will be held in the second/third week of July, to be followed up with a meeting with the Chairman to finalize the request to be made to the HRD Ministry.

:*There may be a possibility of asking for a special grant from the Government of India towards a program for the 50th anniversary of Auroville and related development. However, it is not at all certain that such a grant would be given.

'''3. Meeting with Mr. Rakesh Ranjan, JS HRD – on May 5th.

The following topics were discussed.

:*'''Admission or Termination of Persons in the Register of Residents Regulations.''' The approval of the Regulations by the HRD Ministry is still pending.

:*'''Update on new Secretary:''' The Working Committee members were informed no suitable candidates had been identified. The JS suggested we recommend candidates. The Working Committee has meanwhile informed Dr. Karan Sign of other potential candidates to fill the vacancy.

:*'''Green Campus housing project:''' The topic is still under consideration by the HRD Ministry.

'''4. Meeting with Collector on May 16.''' The following topics were discussed.

:*The collector agreed to '''revive a sub committee''' consisting of representatives of the Collectorate, Vanur Taluk Office and Police to help resolve issues before they flare into large problems.

:*'''Swachh Bharat Mission.''' We were informed that the Swachh Bharat (Clean India) Mission will include the Irumbai and the Bommaiyarpalayam panchayats.

:*'''Road repair in Kuilapalayam.''' We were assured that the work to improve the road will be taken up soon.

'''5. Meeting with Dr. Senthil Velan I.P.S., Foreigners Regional Registration Officer, Chennai on May 19.''' Topics discussed:

:*'''The violation of the laws of India''' by a few Aurovilians, which has resulted in their blacklisting.

:*'''A request of former Aurovilian Stuart Leard''' to be allowed to return to India.

:*'''The status of volunteers.''' The FRRO confirmed that people on Tourist Visa cannot volunteer in India, and agreed to check up on the interpretation of the word ‘commerce’ in the 2005 visa regulation to see if foreign volunteers with an entry visa can volunteer in Auroville’s commercial units.

:*'''The setting up of an RRO liaison office at the Auroville Foundation Bhavan.''' This proposal is still being considered.

:*'''Invitation to visit Auroville.''' Dr. Senthil Velan will come to visit Auroville in June-July and he may give a brief lecture to the Aurovillians on the issue of Visa.

'''6. New member Land Board'''

:The Working Committee has not received any substantial negative objections to the proposal that Sukrit replace Alain Grandcolas as member of the Land Board and has meanwhile recommended his name to the Secretary Auroville Foundation.

'''7. NTDA

:The Working Committee is in the process, together with a representative of the AV Council and TDC, to get independent information on the desirability of an NTDA or the Auroville area.

'''8. Matej

:Matej has informed the Working Committee he wishes to remain in Auroville permanently, while Monica has left for abroad.

'''9. Police Outpost

:At the request of the Under-Secretary Auroville Foundation, the Working Committee, in consultation with the Land Board and the TDC, is in the process of identifying a piece of land along the main road between the Pitchandikulam bridge and the Service area, which can be used for a permanent police outpost. The views of the community will be sought before he plot will be recommended to the Secretary.

'''10. Appeal against a joint decision of the FAMC and Working Committee.

:The FAMC and Working Committee have agreed that one or more independent persons act as an ad hoc appeal body against the process leading to their joint decision regarding Sharnga Guesthouse. The members of the ad-hoc appeal group will be selected from the list of arbiters, and will work similarly to the process as outlined for arbitration in the Auroville Conflict Resolution Policy.

'''11. Auroville Security

:In March 2015, the members of the security team announced that they all wished to resign by April 1, 2015. Consequently, the Working Committee jointly with the Auroville Council initiated a community process to find candidates for this position. A few Aurovillians have submitted their application, but none have been found suitable.

:The process has shown that a rethink and reorganization of the security set-up may be necessary. Several Aurovillians have sent us their proposals on how to organize our collective security which will be used as starting point for a larger discussion. It has also become clear that at least one member of the present team should continue being involved in the new structure. We thank the present security team members for their willingness to continue their work till a new solution has been found.

This will enable the Governing Board to consider support or advise accordingly.

'''13. Windarra Conflict:'''

:In 2012, a conflict arose in Windarra Farm. In March 2013, the Farm Group requested the stewards of Windarra Farm to step out for a short time, and assumed the stewardship of Windarra to resolve the conflict. In November 2014, as no solution had been found, the Auroville Council brought the issue to arbitration. Three arbiters were appointed. They gave their decision in January 2015.

:In accordance with the arbiters’ decision, the Auroville Council and the Working Committee have formed an Implementation and Monitoring Group to implement the arbitration decision. However, its work has been repeatedly frustrated by people who neither respect Auroville’s community process nor the arbiters’ decision and who have been trying to take matters in their own hands. One person, a non-Aurovillian, has moreover repeatedly threatened others with physical violence and issued death threats using abusive language.

:Explanations for the non-cooperative attitude have not been given, and neither have apologies been offered for the threats and abusive language. The Working Committee has informed the Auroville Foundation recommending the removal of the non-Aurovillian from Auroville and will lodge a Police complaint against the non-Aurovillian.

:The Working Committee has invited the Farm Group to discuss the matter.

'''The Working Committee is also involved in the following topics, which are still ongoing and not yet concluded:'''

*Aurovillians not living in and working for Auroville (jointly with the FAMC)
*Aspiration Sports Ground
*Sludge Disposal
*Pending case files (jointly with the Entry Service)

'''[[Entity::Green group]] monthly report for May 2015

'''1. Underutilized land;''' at the request of the WC, the question of how to care for underutilized land in the green belt was discussed at some length in the Forest group and the topic was taken up again by the Green group. Various ideas were put forward by both groups as to how this could be achieved but all depend on the land being fenced. An estimate for a fence made with granite pillars and barbed wire is Rs300/metre which is a large amount and which, it seems, no one is willing to pay. The Green group feels that this amount could be greatly reduced if pre-cast cement pillars were used instead of granite and if the labour to erect the fence, a major cost, could be done using farm and forest stewards, some of their labourers and volunteers. The Green group is in the process of
preparing an estimate for this method of fencing which will be presented to the relevant groups.

'''2. Aurodam watershed;''' this is an ongoing problem with Aurovillians building inappropriately without permission from L’Avenir and in ways that do not respect this very important natural resource. The existing steward will discuss future plans with various groups in the near future.

'''3. Land allocation process;''' the agreed final draft has been sent to the TDC who will forward it to the FAMC for their information.

'''4. Building applications;'''

:'''4.1 Bass in Evergreen;''' Bass’s request to build a demountable house in Evergreen was agreed in the Forest group but unfortunately building details were not passed on to the Green group so that a decision could be taken at their meeting. This will therefore be followed up on email after the building details have been scanned and circulated to the group. It was felt that improvements could be made in the communication between TDC, Green group, Forest and Farm groups to improve the building request process and this is being followed up.

:'''4.2 Sami’s house in Discipline;''' although the resulting building conforms to green belt guidelines, building started before the completion of the building approval process. A letter has been sent explaining the importance of this process to the overall harmony and development of Auroville and requesting that it is followed in the future. The Green group is in the process of formulating a clear step by step process for people wanting to build in the Green belt. This will be posted on AVNet with the building request forms.

'''5. Green group membership;''' It was agreed that the Green group coordinator is a full time job and as the present person cannot do it on a full time basis then someone else should be found. The process of becoming a Green group member is being explored and will be discussed in future meetings.

'''[[Entity::TDC]] - L’avenir d’Auroville 13th June 2015

The following Site and Building applications are announced for feedback from the community for a period of two weeks. The announcement is made for feed-back only and does not mean that the project has final approval. The final approval is given when L'Avenir / TDC issues a NOC
(No Objection Certificate). This happens only once the feed-back period is over, the feedback has been evaluated, final decision by TDC has been reached and the necessary financial formalities have been completed. It is only after issuing a final building permission that fencing, building or any other activity on the site can start. It has to be noted that site permission is given to reserve the site for a maximum period of two years in order to prepare a project proposal. It does not give any right to fence and clear the site unless, for practical reasons, there is a special permission of TDC.

'''[[Entity::TDC]]- L'avenir d'Auroville 20th June 2015

The following Site and Building applications are announced for feedback from the community for a period of two weeks. The announcement is made for feed-back only and does not mean that the project has final approval. The final approval is given when L'Avenir / TDC issues an NOC (No Objection Certificate). This happens only once the feed-back period is over, the feedback has been evaluated, final decision by TDC has been reached and the necessary financial formalities have been completed. It is only after issuing a final building permission that fencing, building or any other activity on the site can start. It has to be noted that site permission is given to reserve the site for a maximum period of two years in order to prepare a project proposal. It does not give any right to fence and clear the site unless, for practical reasons, there is a special permission of TDC.

'''[[Entity::Funds and Assets Management Committee (FAMC) ]] May 2015 Report

{{TOC}}

Regular members:
''Anandi (Auroville Board of Services), Chali (Sri Aurobindo International Institute of Educational Research), David (Forest group), Jeff (Farm group), Mandakini (Working Committee), Matriprasad (Auroville Council), Michael (Auroville Unity Fund), Rathinam (Budget Coordination Committee), Sauro (L'avenir d'Auroville), Sonja (Housing Service) is TOS, Ulli (Auroville Board of Commerce), and Mr. Srinivasmurty (Finance & Administrative Officer, Auroville Foundation).

''Temporary membership: Aurovici (Housing Board) attended a few meetings in place of Sonja (Housing) who is temporarily out of Station (TOS). At the end of the month (29/5) the representative was changed to Yuval (Eternity). This is temporary until Sonja returns in July. Sindhuja attended from Auroville Council (AVC) for two weeks during Matriprasad's absence.

===TRUST & UNIT TOPICS===

The Auroville Board of Commerce (ABC) recommended, and FAMC approved the new unit, Earth& Us, with executives Min and Bindu, under Team Trust. The activities include projects, products, education, behaviour change activities and enabling services.

ABC endorsed, and FAMC approved the addition of a new trustee, Min, to Team Trust. The current trustees are Marco and Carsten.

ABC endorsed, and FAMC approved the unit, Naturally Auroville, move from ABC Trust to GNP Trust.

ABC endorsed, and FAMC approved the unit, Papui and Somethingelse, move from ABC Trust to GNP Trust.

ABC endorsed an additional executive at the Pharmacy of the Auroville Health Centre, Lili. The current executives are Dr. Uma, and Hilde.

ABC reviewed the closure of the unit Auromodele Atelier and it has been approved, with submission of the nil balance sheet signed by a Chartered Accountant. This was approved and will be communicated to the [[Working Committee]], and Office of the Secretary, Auroville Foundation.

The Auroville Board of Services (ABS) endorsed creation of the new unit, Creativity Guest House, under Guest House Trust, with executives Lieve and Juergen K.. This was approved.

ABS endorsed Joy Guest House executive changes: resignation of Laura, and appointments of Stefania, Giovanni, and Sarah S.. The current and continuing executive is Janet. The FAMC did not approve these changes and wrote back to the ABS with several questions, and concerns.

ABS recommends the construction units Auronirmata and Sumark Construction be moved from Auroville Service Trust to Kattida Kalai Trust with other construction related activities. The FAMC supported these recommendations. FAMC asked ABS to consider if AV Dzines, which is also under Auroville Service Trust, might be better suited to a different Trust also. Finally, the ABS was requested to review the entire unit list to see if any other similar changes are needed.

SAIIER passed two resolutions: one accepting the resignation of RamaNarayana, and the other accepting the appointment of Chali. The FAMC expressed its support for these executive changes and requested the Working Committee to inform the Office of the Secretary, [[Auroville Foundation]].

The ABS proposed Non-Commercial unit and Trust Guidelines (like the ABC Commercial unit and Trusts Guidelines) was submitted a second time after having been updated with previous input by the FAMC. In the subsequent review the FAMC made a couple more changes, and then approved the document. The final, approved Guidelines document was confirmed with the ABS. As well, both sets of Guidelines were sent to the AVC for their information, in response to their specific request.

After meeting with Shivaraj and Krishanmyer in April the FAMC decided to offer some practical support to the ongoing and unclear situation of Martuvam Healing Forest (MHF). The FAMC wrote to MHF with the following support: a. as Auroville Village Action Trust requested quite some time ago for MHF to be moved out from the Trust, the FAMC will move MHF as a unit directly under the Auroville Foundation, not under another Trust. There are other units with this set-up and they are included in the consolidated balance sheet; b. the MHF Financial Service account would be reopened for use, as it was frozen by the previous AVC; c. Krishanmyer would be added as a third executive, as he has accepted in writing this responsibility and; d. FAMC will facilitate an inspector for a food license at the MHF location so it will be issued in Tamil Nadu like other Auroville food licenses. FAMC communicated all of this to Shivaraj and Krishamyer but had not received a
reply as of the end of this reporting period.

Aureka asked the FAMC if they can write off bad debts that total Rs. 2,74,768.00. During the discussion it was conceded that the FAMC does not need to approve this request. Aureka was advised to get the approval of their Trust and the Trust auditor and to have on record all relevant communications demonstrating their efforts to recover the payments.

===FINANCE TOPICS===

nothing new this month

===HOUSING TOPICS===

In light of proposed housing subsidy in both the Kalpana and Sunship housing projects, a clear process, including selection criteria, is needed. FAMC members will write to Kalpana and Sunship housing project holders sharing their concerns, and will ask them to share their thoughts about offering subsidized housing. A clear statement that allocation of such housing assets needs to be done in collaboration with the Housing Service, who is the responsible working group for housing assets, will be included. [Noted: in the reply from Sunship it was clarified the project holders are not offering subsidy. An occupant will donate fully towards stewardship of a flat, or be provided a flat on a 'pro-bono' (no donation) basis.] At the end of this reporting period, the FAMC await a reply from the Kalpana project holders.

Sacred Groves project holders requested the FAMC to provide more financial support to the project and to help with the collaboration with the Housing Service / Housing Board. FAMC met with the project holders twice in May and are working very closely with them on how to proceed, with increased clarity and transparency, to complete the originally planned 3 prototype houses as soon as possible.

===LAND TOPICS===

The Land Board (LB) proposed a land exchange with Arul, IR 179/3 (17 cents) in the greenbelt, which will consolidate Auroville land, with Auroville plot IR 73/3 (7 cents). This was approved.

The LB proposed to purchase 1.6 acres in the city area from Jayaraman. Plot IR 407/4, behind Arka. This was approved and it is noted the funds come from Acres for Auroville programme.

The LB informed the FAMC of a land purchase opportunity of several plots in the greenbelt between Minati and Fertile: a total of 8.77 acres. Instead of Auroville purchasing the land directly, it was suggested to pursue the possibility that someone friendly to Auroville could be approached to purchase this land.

The LB submitted two possibilities for land purchase in the greenbelt, one in Fertile (MA 307/4,) and the other in Pitchandikulam (BO 63/6a). It was reported that Pitchandikulam offered Rs. 5 lakhs to put toward the plot purchase in that area. The FAMC gave its support to pursue these land purchases, as both will consolidate existing Auroville land.

===OTHER TOPICS===

The former Working Committee-created Fundraising Cell / Resource Mobilization Team has been dissolved by the Working Committee recently, and the balance of funds is now at the disposal of the FAMC. Aurovilians who are doing fundraising can request financial support from the FAMC, if the fund-raising activities include the need to travel and funds are needed for transportation, for example.

FAMC approved that Ms. Srinivasmurty, on behalf of the Auroville Foundation; obtain one Import Export code to be used by all Auroville units. This was communicated to him.

The AVC informed the FAMC of their position concerning the update to the FAMC mandate (version dated 23 September 2013), and requested FAMC members' input before making an announcement. The FAMC suggested to the AVC that their endorsement was not enough and asked them to the September 2013 update to the FAMC mandate to the Residents Assembly through the News & Notes, and AuroNet for 2 weeks feedback. The FAMC was glad to see that this was done by the AVC on 13 May 2015.

L'avenir and the Green group approved a new chicken farm in the greenbelt, to be managed by Prakash. As Prakash is the intended steward of the plots, the FAMC were asked to approve. There was a long discussion about stewardship. Historically Farm group would be the steward during a farm manager's 3 year probationary period. They monitor the farm during this time. Christian (AuroOrchard) is one of the members who will monitor the new chicken farm. It was agreed to designate Prakash as the “Probationary Steward”. This designation should be included in a written agreement between he and the Farm group, to also include points about housing (temporary), and any personal funds he will use for development. FAMC requested that the Farm group send them
a copy of the finalized agreement.

The FAMC and WCom met and discussed various topics such as private land next to Solar Kitchen being developed, the refund from Sharnga Guest House to former Auroville guest, Ms. Breakell, the situation at Eco Service, Martuvam Healing Forest, the empasse between Ramalingam (Sustenance Farm), and Gowri & Raman (New Service Farm), Mohanam request to partner with Pondicherry Tourism Department for a Rural Heritage Museum, and separate appeal processes concerning a
working groups' 'decision', or 'process'.

SAIIER has been managing the reallocation of school assets under SAIIER Board. SAIIER asked the FAMC if it should continue to do so. They expressed a preference that FAMC and L'avenir would take it up. Furthermore it was shared that some building assets in the Last School Campus are being altered without clearance from SAIIER. It was noted that SAIIER and L'avenir need to intervene. The FAMC reply was that they view the former Last School buildings as best overseen by SAIIER. However if a building becomes vacant, then SAIIER can inform both L'avenir and FAMC for re-allocation.

The BCC asked the FAMC for an update to the earlier meetings concerning the Varuna-Auroville contribution and some of their individual members' proposals. It was agreed in order to move this forward to create a subgroup of the FAMC and BCC. BCC has been invited to select a couple BCC members to be part of the subgroup.

A paper with recommendations concerning village development was distributed by L'avenir d'Auroville / Town Development Council (TDC) to FAMC, WC, AVC, and the Green group. The FAMC wrote to TDC in support of them pursuing further collaboration in village development, as has been ongoing. In the case of a topic concerning assets, such as land lease, the TDC should refer back to the FAMC.

Following up from previous reports

In April it was reported that the FAMC requested the Pour Tous Purchasing Service (PTPS) management how PTPS would operate (at a different location in the city area) and exactly what services would be offered at a new location, and how do they see the operation at the new location being different from the PTPS in Kuilapalayam. The FAMC received a reply and in the subsequent conversation it was shared that the Budget Coordination Committee (BCC) would like to ask the Residents Assembly Service to facilitate a dialogue in the community about PTPS. The members agreed to put the topic on hold until there is an outcome from this dialogue.

In April the FAMC requested the ABS to follow-up with Lieve and Juergen concerning the application to open the new unit, Creativity Guest House due to a disagreement concerning fees with the Exploration small guest house umbrella. This matter was resolved and in May the ABS re-iterated its endorsement to create the unit, and the FAMC approved.

In April the FAMC had some questions for Bobby and Suryan concerning their application to open the new unit, Isai Ambalam Guest House. Suryan responded and the FAMC thereafter approved the creation of the new unit, Isai Ambalam Guest House.

In April FAMC informed Ramachandra (Celebration) to pay at least Rs. 10,000 per month towards his total long outstanding debt. In May Ramachandra made additional payments as requested. Then Ramachandra asked to be included on the Varuna-Auroville electricity scheme. It is the decision of the BCC, not the FAMC. However FAMC did not support this request, and informed the BCC, and told Ramachandra to contact BCC directly. Also, the FAMC did not approve his request to open an expense account, for the Home Stay. Finally, Ramachandra asked for the Home Stay he is managing to be returned to the website which lists recognized Auroville Home Stays. It was removed by the Guest Facilities Coordination Group (GFCG) due to Ramachandra's non-cooperation with the basic agreements. The FAMC have asked GFCG if it can be listed again, and informed Ramachandra. If the GFCG say yes, then the FAMC will support their decision. FAMC have made it very clear to Ramachandra that his monthly payments, of at least Rs. 10,000/mo, will be made before month-end.

In April it was reported that the FAMC requested a more detailed report from the activity, Woodlink. A follow-up report was submitted by Torkil and Glenn and was appreciated by the
members.

In April the FAMC reported an irregular house-sitting arrangement between Jackie & Nelis (TOS) and LiFang. To the last FAMC communication, Jackie & Nelis replied with a request for repatriation (or “Leaving Auroville Allowance”). As the Leaving Auroville Allowance is coordinated by the AVC, FAMC informed Jackie & Nelis to contact them.

{{TOC}}

===NETHERLANDS===

On 7 June AVI Netherlands held its general assembly in the southern city of Nijmegen. Board
members are still Wim van Megen (president/secretary), Jan Pieter Derksen (treasurer), while Josee Lamers and Adri Bolsenga are general members. Ms Lamers, who presents the centre on the umbrella AVI Board, and who is candidate president for a new Dutch AVI board, has been requested to find new general members for the same. In a pleasant ambiance, the general assembly was updated on various developments in Auroville. Among these was a detailed update of the ICT/optical fiber project of Aurovilians Chandresh, Manu, JV and others, that is getting more and more shape. It was given at the hand of the elaborate ‘Auroville Campus Area Network’ presentation, put together by young Dyuman. All this and more in the centre’s recent newsletter
downloadable at: http://goo.gl/CHc9Ez

===UK===

The AVI UK centre came out with a newsletter that endeavours to veer a bit away from the club bulletin format to a paper with more in-depth articles. “The Newsletter will continue to give news and updates from Auroville and AVIUK, but from time to time we will feature some aspect of the
vision of the founder, whom we know as the Mother, and her originating purpose in creating Auroville. She saw the emerging township as a place in which the research into our human condition and the future evolution of our species, so brilliantly expounded in the works of Sri Aurobindo, would be carried forward for the benefit of all mankind. In this issue we begin to explore the nature and possibilities of human consciousness as an integral part of Auroville’s mission to India and the world.”

The articles in the current letter are mainly written by Alan Vickers (Vikas), Sonia Dyne and Alan Herbert. It can be obtained from the centre’s secretary Angiras via info (at) aviuk.org .

===ACRES FOR AUROVILLE===

Centres are rejoicing with regard to an announcement from the Auroville Land Board of a first 1.6 acres land acquisition directly adjacent to Matrimandir, made possible by the Acres for Auroville
campaign, the joint action of Auroville International with Lands for Auroville Unified (LFAU). The A4A team writes: It was "the most central piece of unpurchased lands in Auroville" (the words of one Aurovilian) and it's now fully recorded in the Tamil Nadu Land Registry. “We warmly congratulate Auroville's Land Board for this success!”

===AUROHOST===

a small update from Bryan (AVI USA) tells us that AuroHost ―Hosting traveling members of the
Auroville worldwide family― lists at the moment 127 members from 19 countries (most of them from India, Germany and USA), while 5 hosting requests are in the process of being worked out right now.

===FRANCE===

AVI France held its general assembly in Paris on Saturday, 20th of June.

[[Year::2015| ]][[Month::07| ]]
'''[[Entity::TDC]]-L'avenir d'Auroville 4th July 2015

The following Site and Building applications are announced for feedback from the community for a period of two weeks. The announcement is made for feed-back only and does not mean that the project has final approval. The final approval is given when L'Avenir / TDC issues an NOC (No Objection Certificate). This happens only once the feed-back period is over, the feedback has been evaluated, final decision by TDC has been reached and the necessary financial formalities have been completed. It is only after issuing a final building permission that fencing, building or any other activity on the site can start. It has to be noted that site permission is given to reserve the site for a maximum period of two years in order to prepare a project proposal. It does not give any right to fence and clear the site unless, for practical reasons, there is a special permission of TDC.

'''Individual Project

'''Building Permission:'''
:*AV Natural Camp, Kodaikanal, Storeroom

'''Site permission:'''
:*Site for Two Peripheral Fence with Gate in International Zone
:*Site for Centre Guest House – Staff Quarters for Dodo and Cristina on Survey No. IR 220/1 for an area of 150 m2.

'''Collective Project
:'''Site Permission:'''
::*Booma Devi – Manikandan, Integrated Dairy Unit & Residence.

:'''Project writes up given by the project holder.
:'''Project Title:''' Sri Boomadevi Farm
:'''Proposed Site Location:''' Irumbai Lake (Survey No: IR 59/1, 83/1 and 84/1)
:'''Project Holder:''' Manikandan and Anjalakshmi
:'''Architect:''' Manibalan
:'''Contact Persons:''' Manikandan

:'''Description:''' We are mainly focused on organic Dairy farming. It is a very healthy and environmental friendly product. It is free from pesticides/chemicals. Consumers’ outlook for food products is becoming more precise and definite in terms of safety and quality. This will lead to the growth of milk products in particular.

:'''Target Group:''' Farm Group

:'''Background:''' we will produce Standardized and poison free food for our community. Supply high nutritious and healthy food at an affordable price to Auroville citizens. Minimize all form of pollution to reduce carbon foot-print that may result from agricultural practices.

:'''Triggers:''' We were basically born in a farming family. We always loved to do organic farming. Boomadevi’s farm aims at growing healthy and sustainable food for the Auroville community and bio region. Currently there is a shortage of milk supply in Auroville which mostly depends on the outside market. We will soon participate with Auroville milk cooperative and try developing dairy industry more productive and standardized.

:'''Goals/Objectives:''' Our intention is to do good work that helps to achieve a sustainable use of the land natural resources. We will keep on learning and discovering more about traditional organic methods of farming techniques. We are very confident; we will do farming work in harmony with nature rather than against it. We will use tried test techniques to achieve good cropping yield without harming the natural environment or the people who live and work in it. We believe that the methods used in AVFG are very close to Sri Auroboindo’s integral yoga. We want to demonstrate sustainable practice in agriculture extension.

:'''TDC asks for feedback from the residents of Auroville within two weeks from the date of publication. If anyone wishes to have detailed information, feel free to contact TDC - L’avenir d’Auroville office: 262-3568 or come personally to the Building Application section.

'''Announcement – 1'''

'''WATER

TDC is planning the laying of a waterline from the Crown Road (Gaia crossing) to Habitat/Administrative area. The extra water supply has become necessary because new projects are coming up (Sunship, Archives etc.). At the moment the zone is dependent on one bore well that is too fragile. The route will follow the existing mud road from the Gaia-crossing to Matrimandir. See map. (See map on Auronet)

'''Announcement – 2

'''Laying OFC

Laying of an OFC connecting Community Cluster to the Network Center in Town hall via the School Cluster. For details and map visit TDC office or contact Chandresh/Manu. (See map on Auronet)

'''[[Entity::L'avenir D'Auroville/Town Development Council (TDC)]] June 2015 report

{{TOC}}

Reminder: This report is a synopsis of key topics discussed in regular meetings. It does not include any communication that has been published in the News & Notes or on the Auronet webpage of L’avenir d’Auroville / Town Development Council (TDC), such as community announcements, financial reports and site or building permissions.

Regular members: Cristo (Regional Development), Jacqueline (Urban Design) is TOS, Manohar (WC representative) present one meeting a week, Sauro (Overall Coordination and Facilitation), and Toby (Township Development).

Punctual attendees: Alain Grandcolas, Bertrand, Dorle, Dustudio (Dhruv and Dharmesh), Green Group (GG) representatives (Jeff, Priya, Yuval), Housing Service (HS) representatives (Jeff, Victoria), Kaja (DDP for RZ 1 & 2), altenergiez representative (Manosh Bardhan), Paul Vincent, Sumark (Kevin and Peter), and Suhasini.

===TDC-RELATED TOPICS===
====Waste Management volunteers====

The TDC was working with several volunteers on solid waste management projects and fund-raisers. However, new visa regulations are being put in place where no financial support is
possible for the volunteers, which will probably put a damper on future volunteering applications.

====Mapping, survey and GIS team====

:'''a) Land-related data:''' The team members are working together to streamline and make all data easily accessible.

:'''b) Surveyor list:''' The TDC and the WAT team have set up a list of surveyors for the GIS team.

====Standing Order (SO) and vacancies====

Following the TDC’s urgent request for new coordinators, the WC and the TDC exchanged several emails concerning the SO and vacancies. Furthermore, the TDC uploaded the SO and the Office Order (OO) on the Auronet (see Home > References > Mandates & Policies > L’avenir d’Auroville / Town Development Council (TDC) or https://www.auroville.org.in/page/lavenir-
dauroville-town-development-council-tdc).

Summary: The SO (dated May 1st 2011) was set up by the Governing Board (GB) for the constitution of the TDC. This document sums up the role of the TDC coordinators and so on
(somewhat like a job description).

On October 12th 2012, the Residents Assembly (RA) and the WC sent a list of names (proposed TDC coordinators) to the GB. The OO provides clarity on the term of office: 4 years from October 24th 2012. The mandate of the TDC coordinators therefore ends on October 24th 2016, and 6 months beforehand (April 24th 2016) the new council members will be nominated and instated.

====Technical team====

By the end of July, their work will be wrapped up and submitted to Dr. Doshi. After that, the TDC will be able to take decisions on further work.

====Employment====

:'''a) Full-time secretary:''' One part-time secretary will work full-time from July 1st onwards.

:'''b) Contract renewal:''' This contract concerns a member of the regional planning team, whose role is to interact with local authority and facilitate the approach to government schemes that he is familiar with.

:'''c) Detailed Development Plan (DDP):''' It was decided to complete the work on the DDP with the existing team (Luis Feduchi and Kaja Delezuch) as well as 2 additional students (preferably one Indian), with regard to the preparation of detailed parameters for the Development Units (plots). In the meantime, the feedback process on the overall planning is still ongoing.

:'''d) WAT team:''' After studying an engineer’s CV, it was decided to employ her on a 6-month trial basis.

====General Meeting (GM)====
Following the GM held on June 19th, the TDC would like to point out that meetings should be held for professional topics, not personal attacks.

====Housing Board====
A TDC representative needs to be found to attend the Housing Board meetings.

===FINANCIAL TOPICS===
====GOI grant====
The TDC discussed the details of the GOI grant and a projection to the end of the year will be prepared for the Monitoring Committee of the WC.

====Office expenses====
:a) New computer
:b) Internet connection

===HOUSING TOPICS===
====Residential Zone, Sectors 1 & 2====
Following the publication of the Detailed Development Plan (DDP), several people were interested in developing several plots in these sectors and came to the TDC for information and details so a meeting was organized with Kaja Delezuch.

:'''a) Soffio (Dorle and Anita):'''
::This project is based on the DDP for RZ 1&2 and Suhasini’s study regarding density and population, also taking into account the following points: various sites; buffer zones; slope and waterways (aiming at percolation); peramboke land; mobility and accessibility. Public green spaces should include housing, sport amenities and activities and are not to be “separated” by fences etc.
These spaces will contain no WWT pipes, no service corridors and must be modular as they may evolve.

:'''b) Sumark (Peter and Kevin):'''
::Regarding the development of the area between the Vikas radial and Invocation IV, it is requested to change the typology of future buildings (innovative construction materials, cost and space management). Equilibrium must be found between varied characteristics (such as high density and public amenities). To do this, the building should not encompass too much buffer and be on the road for more accessibility and to make it public-oriented. The construction of this area can be phased and, in time, accommodate arising needs.

:'''c) Dustudio (Dhruv and Dharmesh):'''
::Dustudio would like to begin planning a new residential building resembling Swayam, but denser, more urban, comprising maybe 1 extra floor, taking into account the density and green spaces as defined by the DDP, as well as correlating with the Line of Force and surrounding communities.

:'''d) Humanscapes (Suhasini):'''
::This project is promoted by the Foundation and supported by the TDC. Until a project holder is found, a dedicated GOI grant has been opened.

Conclusion:
::The TDC will further assess these proposals and define detailed parameters to provide an appropriate DU allocation and site layout.

====Site and Building Applications====
Approximately 20 site and building applications were studied in June, whether for feedback, discussion, follow-up, etc.

====Housing for Youth Action Group====

:'''a) Humanscapes:'''
::A project holder is needed. One suggestion was Vika and Sonja from the Housing Service/Board and Kavitha for the youth link. The client body needs to be identified for financial and contracting aspects and for the project to move on. It was highlighted that most of the young adults that the Youth Action Group has spoken to have families and their needs should be taken into account. Phase 2 or 3 would be more adapted to their needs.

:'''b) Experimental house-building zone'''
::A zone will be allocated to 5-6 people/families so that they can build alone-standing houses by themselves with the supervision of an architect. However, the TDC needs information on potential people to set up the project, such as the size of the house, the budget, etc. With a concept project,
fund-raising activities can start. Funds and grants generally depend on sustainability and urban dimensions/objectives (for example: building with experimental materials).

===LAND-RELATED TOPICS===

====Under-utilized lands====

The TDC along with the WC and the Green Group (GG) are concerned about the protection and utilization of several plots. One idea was to plant trees (ex: work trees) that can easily be cut and generate funds in the future. The TDC is preparing a map showing plot ownership in the city to then determine stewardship and finally lay out a development plan (near-future or later developments).

====New land next to ARKA====

Part of this land is permanently reserved for the park; the rest will be jointly taken care of (by the RS and Glenn) on a temporary basis until some other appropriate development takes place in the Cultural Zone.

===ROADS===
====International Zone (IZ) loop road====

The IZ team wishes to develop the zone further and a plan is needed to be able to locate the transformer etc. in a logical manner with regard to the position of the road. Various alignments are being studied in the IZ to avoid peramboke land and the cemetery.

====Private Lands on the Crown road====

To secure Auroville land and roads, the TDC is studying the option of building roads that circumvent private land. Several ideas have been raised, such as fencing off private lands, making a bend in the road, etc.

====Sign boards====

The TDC received a request to change several sign boards. Collaboration with the Auroville Foundation (as they had started the sign-board project) and the Road Service (who will execute the work as these signs are located on/near roads) is necessary.

====Private Developments via AV roads====

Roads touching private land often leads to unwanted development. AV roads may not be used for JCB access; the best way to counter this would be to fence the access to these private lands.

====Safety issues around road crossings====

:'''a) Matrimandir:'''
::These roads were moved for the excavation, but many issues regarding safety have been raised. Poppo has been contacted.

:'''b) Solar Kitchen:'''
::Several ideas were brought up, such as STOP signs, street lights, speed limit signs and security cameras. There is a high probability that several of these ideas would not be respected if they were to be installed, so the TDC is studying the “roundabout” vs. “straight crossing” option.

====Road plan presentation====

The TDC will shortly be presenting an overall road / access plan (for the Residential Zone, Industrial Zone, Crown road, etc.).

====Access road to the Industrial Zone====
The best option is by KOFPU straight to the tar road as there are no buildings and the community has already been split into 2 by AV Council arbitration. This road will be included in the road study. The Farm Group will be informed of upcoming road markings.

====Crossing peramboke lands====

Regarding the Mangalam radial, an agreement is being reached between Kottakarai and the WC.

===REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT===
====Pitchandikulam pond====

The TDC helped sort out the problem and ensured that further dealing under the MNREG (Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee) program was done in a non-destructive manner. Discussions are on-going with members of the Kuilapalayam village elders, the Bommayarpalayam panchayat and the Block Development Office (BDO) to identify possible works under this program as alternatives to digging this pond.

====District Rural Development Agency (DRDA) in Villipuram====

Requests have been received from the DRDA in Villipuram to provide technical support with the beach beautification program in Bommayarpalayam. The engineers of the local Public Work Department (PWD) were met at the beachside in order for them to prepare an estimate for the work.
A further request concerned the Solid Waste Management (SWM) program covering the 6 villages of the Bommayarpalayam and Irumbai panchayats. The TDC is on contact with all the groups dealing with SWM in Auroville who have agreed to provide assistance to the government-
sponsored project for SWM in our area.

====Water For All====

The TDC has become part of a regional campaign named Water For All that aims at raising the awareness of the residents in our watershed, i.e. a radius of approx. 40 km North, West and South of Auroville. This work is conducted in collaboration with PondyCAN and several NGOs in our region.

===GROUPS, ZONES, SERVICES===
====Green Group (GG)====

:'''a) Sustainable Livelihood Institute (SLI):'''

::Concerning lands around the Irumbai Lake, an understanding should be established and a group needs to be formed regarding the planning and development of the region. For the SLI site permission, 2 agreements need to be approved and signed (one with the FAMC and WC regarding the legal agreement, the other with the Farm Group (FG) regarding land utilization). The FG will organize a meeting with the SLI team to reach an agreement.

:'''b) Land allocation process document – FAMC:'''

::modifications The modifications proposed by the FAMC were accepted because the process now includes the collaboration of all concerned parties.

:'''c) Service Farm issue:'''

::The Farm Group (FG) was unable to resolve this (foreseeable) issue; a decision was taken by the FAMC in 2008. The TDC requested that the FG take a stand on this issue. To do so, they will have a meeting and come up with decisions and/or options as well as plans and estimates (if fencing is required etc.).

====Water Regulatory Board====

The TDc felt the need to have a 3rd executive for the Water Service and requested the FAMC to revive the Water Regulatory Board that is supposed to appoint executives. A list of “water people” (concerning Water distribution, Water harvesting, Ground water, Desalination, Pipelines, and Water
system management) was set up for their feedback.

===OTHER TOPICS===
====Updated AV map====

The TDC was requested to update the AV map. It should not mention land ownership (AV/not AV), just main roads and communities.

====Celebration====

There are 4-5 buildable plots if fences and gates are positioned with care. A map is being prepared.

====Living Museum project====

History: the Auroville Foundation (AVF) contacted the TDC, WC and FAMC for a living museum project. The location was feasible (as the land (plot AL 66/1) is not “farmable”); it would establish a good (1st) link with Alankuppam and would remain under Auroville control.

However, the project was rejected by the WC and the FAMC: the amount (54 lakhs) was not sufficient and not worth the amount of land that would be allocated, the commitment and follow-up was not clear (financially for example), and the project kept changing.

Anyhow, a new proposal is expected from the Pondy govt and will be studied again. On a financial level, special attention will be given to: the total amount, where the balance (between current amount and total) will come from, and the maintenance cost and funding of the project.

====Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP)====

The plans for the WWTP have been submitted to the University of Cologne for improvement.

====International Living Future Institute (ILFI)====

There was a proposal to contact the ILFI for community guidelines for a green city (for ex. Equal input and output of building energy, 0 water waste). To do this, they would study the MP to find weak or lacking spots according to their guidelines. It was agreed that the MP and subsequent studies (approx. 10 docs) would need to be assembled and synthesized to make this study more efficient. However, there is too much working material in the pipelines for the moment, and it would require too much time to study.
Therefore, this study would end up costing too much. Once the TDC has more consolidated material, this study shall be re-considered.

====WC clarifications====

:'''a) Sludge:'''

::Land has been identified by Fertile; the TDC is waiting for a proposal by the service in charge. For that, a team needs to be put in place to proceed with this project.

:'''b) ATM in Visitors Centre (VC):'''

::5-6 years back, there had been strong objection from the VC team; it needs to be discussed with them. The TDC believes that the Service Zone would be a better location but it is not developed and is unsafe.

:'''c) Matrimandir test ponds:'''

::Authorization was not given by the TDC for these test ponds.

====E-rickshaw====
The TDC is interested in public transport and electrical vehicles. This proposal is being processed; the TDC decided to wait and see the results in Pondy (these rickshaws will be arriving there in approx. 3 weeks).

'''[[Entity::Working Committee]] report for June 2015

{{TOC}}

Main topics dealt with in June 2015.

===New Town Development Authority===

A report of the joint visits of the Under-Secretary, Sindhuja for the Auroville Council, Sauro for the TDC and Carel for the [[Working Committee]] to Dr. M.S. Swaminathan and a high official of the Tamil Nadu government on the topic of the protection of the lands in the Auroville area and the advisability to apply for an New Town Development Authority was published in the News and Notes of June 6th.

===Way Forward===

On July 2nd a meeting of the Vision Task Force took place with representatives of the following Action Groups: Education, Economy, Governance, Youth, and Land & Town Planning. Two
Action groups, Growth and Bioregion, are scheduled to meet for the first time in July as most of their members have been out of station.

The various Action Plans and Reports will be made available on the Auronet and the News and Notes until the dedicated Way Forward website is ready. A joint meeting of all the Action Groups will be scheduled in August.

The next meetings of the VTF will be on August 8th and September 2nd. On October 2nd, a day before the GB and IAC meetings which are scheduled for October 3-5, the VTF will meet to take stock of where we are and ensure a proper presentation to the GB and IAC.

===GOI Plan Grant disbursal===

The GOI grant for the financial year 2015-2016 will amount to Rs 15 crore. From this amount, as per the request of the Governing Board, an amount of Rs 4 crore has been set aside for the creation of low-cost, sustainable housing.

At the request of the Under Secretary, Auroville Foundation, we have constituted a GOI Plan Grant Subgroup which, as specified in Standing Order # 7, takes decisions on the allocation of GOI grants jointly with the Under-Secretary, and ensures that utilization certificates are issued in time, so as
not to endanger further grants. Based on their competence and knowledge of the matter and the fact that they do not represent the interest of any of the grantees (Bharat Nivas, SAIIER, TDC or NESS), we have appointed Michael Tait, Hemant and Rathinam to be part of this GOI Grant Subgroup along with Ranjith and Carel on behalf of the Working Committee.

The sub-group’s first immediate task is to ensure that all utilization certificates for 14/15 are submitted, so as not to endanger receiving the grants for 15/16. The Working Committee has meanwhile asked all the grantees who have not yet submitted their UCs to do so immediately.
The subgroup together with the Under Secretary met on June 18, to disburse the first installment of the GOI Plan Grant 2015-16 of Rs 2 crore Capital and Rs 50 lakh General. The following disbursement was agreed upon (in lakhs):

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Beneficiary !! Capital (in lakhs) !! General (in lakhs)
|-
| SAIIER || 57 || 14
|-
| Bharat Nivas || 35 || 13
|-
| TDC || 98 || 10
|-
| Working Committee || 0 || 3
|-
| NESS || 0 || 5
|-
| Network Centre || 10 || 0
|-
| Auroville Foundation || 0 || 5
|-
| TOTAL || 200 || 50
|}

The beneficiaries have been requested for detailed estimates and a spending timeline for each activity. The monitoring and tracking of the grant will be done by the Unity Fund, in such a way that every 2 weeks the members of the subgroup, the beneficiaries and the activity-executives will receive an overview of the total amount allocated, the total amount spent, the amount still to be spent and the period in which this amount has to be spent. The allocated amounts need to be spent by July 31st and UC's need to be submitted by that date.

After this meeting the Under-Secretary has, however, only disbursed 1.45 crore and not the full amount of 2.45 crore, keeping 1 crore in the AV Foundation account for later disbursement. This matter is under discussion.

===Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace Act===

The Governing Board, in its 46th meeting held in March, directed the Working Committee to implement the provisions of the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention,
Prohibition and Redressal) Act 2013 in Auroville. The Board emphasised that Auroville must take the lead in implementing these procedures effectively with their expertise.

Sindhuja on behalf of the Auroville Council and Carel on behalf of the Working Committee discussed the matter on June 12th with senior lawyer Sriram Panchu. Sriram concurred that
Auroville should have one internal complaints committee which deals with all matters of sexual harassment in Auroville, as specified in the Act, and advised that it be setup by the Governing Board. This means that the Governing Board, by Standing Order, will create this Committee, with members proposed by the Working Committee.

The matter was further discussed by the Working Committee and Auroville Council. There was unanimous agreement that the Internal Compliant Committee, to be constituted under this Act, should not only deal with the issues of sexual harassment as specified in the Act, but also with issues of domestic violence not specified in the Act. This will need the approval of the Residents of Auroville.

The Auroville Council and Working Committee also discussed the constitution of the Internal Complaints Committee to be set-up under the Act. We jointly propose the following names:
Niva (Koodam/Realisation), Anbu (AVAG), Srijita (MM Nursery), Bridget (Pitanga, Luminosity), Anandamayi (Security, Madhuca), Jayendra (Djaima), Yuval (Utility). The members hold office for a period of 3 years.

A brief extract of this Act is as below. A pdf copy of the Act and its Rules has been published on the Auronet.

We request all community members to give their feedback on the proposed candidates for the Internal Review Committee and for the extension of its work to include issues of domestic
violence.

In case no substantial negative feedback is received, we will bring the matter to the Chairman of the Auroville Foundation for the passing of the Standing Order.

===Closure Abri - Forecomers - Ravena road?===

A few incidents of assault and robbery have happened on the Ravena - Forecomers - Abri road. We have received a suggestion that the check-post near Ravena and Pondy Ville resort, which offers a short cut to Muthialpet, should be closed, perhaps to start with only in the evening hours. We have asked all those involved for their views on this suggestion and would also welcome the views of the community.

===Volunteers issues===

The Working Committee maintains the contacts with the Regional Registration Officer, Pondicherry and the Foreigners Regional Registration Officer, Chennai. Regarding volunteers, we were informed:

*Those holding tourist visa cannot volunteer in Auroville or anywhere else in India.
*Volunteers, interns and students need an Entry Visa.
*Volunteering is restricted to Auroville Services.
*Volunteering in AV Commercial units is still a topic of consideration at the FRRO, Chennai.
*Students who come with a Student Visa issued at the recommendation of an Indian university can only volunteer in Auroville if this volunteering is part of the curriculum, e.g. has been explicitly authorized by that Indian university in writing.

The Working Committee is in discussion with the RRO to find a solution.

The Working Committee is not involved in the policy about what benefits Auroville gives to volunteers.

===New Entry Visas===

We have been informed that some Indian embassies abroad do not issue 5-year Entry Visa as recommended by the Auroville Foundation, but only Entry Visa for lesser periods of time. We
have proposed to the Indian authorities that in these cases the RRO, Pondicherry, may issue stay visa and residential permits for the period as recommended by the Auroville Foundation.

===Visa renewals===

The Working Committee issues recommendations to the Secretary for the extension of Stay Visa and Residential Permits. In all these cases we ask the person how often and for how long a person has been staying out of Auroville. Where applicable, we recommend the granting of extensions for five year periods. However, if a person has been out of station for months on end, and says that this will continue, we may decide to recommend extensions for shorter periods.

===Cleaning up the Register of Residents and the Master List===

At the request of the Under-Secretary, and in cooperation with the office of the Secretary, which maintains the Register of Residents, and the Residents’ Service, which maintains the Master List, we have compiled a list of people who have left Auroville more than five years ago. This list has been published on the Auronet https://www.auroville.org.in/article/49202. It is the intention that the names of the people on this list will be moved to a separate Register of Left Auroville Residents. The community is invited to go through our list and inform us in case a person’s name should not be moved to the Register of Left Auroville Residents.

===Police Outpost===

In our report over the month of May we mentioned that, at the request of the Under-Secretary Auroville Foundation, the Working Committee, in consultation with the Land Board and the TDC, was in the process of identifying a piece of land along the main road somewhere between the East Coast Road and the Service Area which could be used for a police outpost, to facilitate police patrolling around Auroville.

This plot has been identified as next to the saw mill, opposite Maha Travels, at the outer border of the greenbelt. The plan is to provide a container with windows, doors and a bathroom to the police, to see if this facility would be sufficient. We request the community to send us its views.

===Post office shifting===

The Working Committee, together with the Under Secretary, is following up on a suggestion of Mr. Bala Baskar that the Auroville Post Office moves into the telephone exchange building which is located at the junction of the tar road and the dirt road leading to Matrimandir.

===Vehicle passes===

In our report on the month of February we informed the community that the Under-Secretary of the Auroville Foundation proposes to issue stickers for cars owned by Aurovilians and Auroville units for easy access to Auroville, so that the guards will know who to allow in. This would also give
an indication about the number of cars owned by Aurovilians / Auroville units. We asked for suggestions on this topic.

Four responses were received: three welcomed the proposal yet felt it was not sufficient. Feedback suggested that we need to raise awareness about the growing number of individual cars and its consequences for the community, children, cyclists, and pedestrians; divert some of the finance going in this direction into building a more effective public transport system for all; make the issuing of the stickers conditional (license, insurance, vehicle well maintained, responsible driver and a hefty road tax) which would imply the setting up of an Auroville RTO; offer other stickers which could say: 1) “We drive at Auroville speed - max. 25 km/hour"; 2) “We support Auroville’s community transport”; or encourage sticker holder to make a voluntary donation (ideally monthly, even if modest) towards ACT.

We also recall that in response to a petition on AuroNet posted by Chandresh on Sep 23, 2014, 77% of the 153 respondents agree that "It is urgent to do something about the growing trend of private car ownership in Auroville."

It is proposed that stickers will be free for all Aurovilians, Newcomers, Friends of Auroville, and Auroville employees. A fee could be collected from commercial vehicles such as taxis, where the fees for taxis operated by Auroville units could be lower than those from taxis from non-Auroville taxi services.

We once again invite the community to give its views. If necessary, the matter can be discussed in a General Meeting.

===Complaints against Aurovilians===

We regularly receive complaints about the behavior of one or more Aurovilians, which we try to resolve. Of late, however, we have noted that the tone of some of these complaints is not only unpleasant but often vindictive and that some complainers have gone as far as creating a website to post their accusations. We believe that this poisons the Auroville atmosphere and damages Auroville’s reputation.

Sri Aurobindo wrote a letter to a disciple on the need of psychic self-control in the midst of discussions. We believe that his words also apply to postings on the intranet or to emails. We have taken the liberty to add to his words accordingly [in square brackets.]

*Not to allow the impulse of speech to assert itself too much or say anything without reflection, but to speak [write] always with a conscious control and only what is necessary and helpful.
*To avoid all debate, dispute or too animated discussion and simply say [write] what has to be said and leave it there.
*There should also be no insistence that you are right and the others wrong, but what is said [written] should only be thrown in as a contribution to the consideration of the truth of the matter.
*To keep the tone of speech [writing] and the wording very quiet and calm and uninsistent.
*Not to mind at all if others are heated and dispute, but remain quiet and undisturbed and yourself speak [write] only what can help things to be smooth again.
*If there is gossip about others and harsh criticism (especially about sadhaks/spiritual aspirants), not to join − for these things are helpful in no way and only lower the consciousness from its higher level.
*To avoid all that would hurt or wound others.

The Working Committee proposes that those in dispute meet together, in the presence of a mediator, to discuss the issues and try to find common grounds of agreement. If the accusations are correct, the parties could agree on some kind of redress which might include a public apology or the payment of a sum considered appropriate. If the accusations are found to be incorrect, the complainers should redress their mistakes and issue a public apology. The matter should end with the publication of a report in the News and Notes stating how the matter is resolved and what type of redress, if any, has been agreed upon. Once the redress action has been done, the matter should be considered as closed. This means that the complaints can no longer be raised in any public forum and that the person against whom the complaint was lodged can qualify to be a member of working groups.

This process might also be used to settle some long-standing issues, for example those that were considered ‘non-negotiable’ by the Temporary Feedback Review Committee when judging eligibility for the Working Committee, and deciding that some people were not eligible for participating.

===Windarra===
We had a very constructive meeting with members of the Farm Group which opened the doors to a better mutual understanding and a collaborative way to implement the arbitration’s decision in the Windarra issue. The Farm Group, even though disagreeing with aspects of the arbitration decision, has nevertheless agreed to respect it and agreed to delegate three of its members to help the Implementation Group implementing the arbitration decision. The implementation is ongoing.

===Other matters===

The Working Committee is also involved in the following topics, which are still on-going and not yet concluded:

*TDC restructuring
*Preparing for the 50th anniversary celebrations.
*Trademark protection of the name of Auroville
*Special Guests Coordination (jointly with the MM Access Team)
*Aurovilians not living in and working for Auroville (jointly with the FAMC)
*Aspiration Sports Ground
*Sludge Disposal
*Mailand Trust (jointly with the FAMC)
*Rayapettei Asset (jointly with the FAMC)
*Auroville Health Services
*Eco Service

A fee could be collected from commercial vehicles such as taxis, where the fees for taxis operated by Auroville units could be lower than those from taxis from non-Auroville taxi services.

We once again invite the community to give its views. If necessary, the matter can be discussed in a General Meeting.

===Complaints against Aurovilians===

We regularly receive complaints about the behavior of one or more Aurovilians, which we try to resolve. Of late, however, we have noted that the tone of some of these complaints is not only unpleasant but often vindictive and that some complainers have gone as far as creating a website to post their accusations. We believe that this poisons the Auroville atmosphere and damages Auroville’s reputation.

Sri Aurobindo wrote a letter to a disciple on the need of psychic self-control in the midst of discussions. We believe that his words also apply to postings on the intranet or to emails. We have taken the liberty to add to his words accordingly [in square brackets.]

*Not to allow the impulse of speech to assert itself too much or say anything without reflection, but to speak [write] always with a conscious control and only what is necessary and helpful.
*To avoid all debate, dispute or too animated discussion and simply say [write] what has to be said and leave it there.
*There should also be no insistence that you are right and the others wrong, but what is said [written] should only be thrown in as a contribution to the consideration of the truth of the matter.
*To keep the tone of speech [writing] and the wording very quiet and calm and uninsistent.
*Not to mind at all if others are heated and dispute, but remain quiet and undisturbed and yourself speak [write] only what can help things to be smooth again.
*If there is gossip about others and harsh criticism (especially about sadhaks/spiritual aspirants), not to join − for these things are helpful in no way and only lower the consciousness from its higher level.
*To avoid all that would hurt or wound others.

The Working Committee proposes that those in dispute meet together, in the presence of a mediator, to discuss the issues and try to find common grounds of agreement. If the accusations are correct, the parties could agree on some kind of redress which might include a public apology or the payment of a sum considered appropriate. If the accusations are found to be incorrect, the complainers should redress their mistakes and issue a public apology. The matter should end with the publication of a report in the News and Notes stating how the matter is resolved and what type of redress, if any, has been agreed upon. Once the redress action has been done, the matter should be considered as closed. This means that the complaints can no longer be raised in any public forum and that the person against whom the complaint was lodged can qualify to be a member of working groups.

This process might also be used to settle some long-standing issues, for example those that were considered ‘non-negotiable’ by the Temporary Feedback Review Committee when judging eligibility for the Working Committee, and deciding that some people were not eligible for participating.

===Windarra===
We had a very constructive meeting with members of the Farm Group which opened the doors to a better mutual understanding and a collaborative way to implement the arbitration’s decision in the Windarra issue. The Farm Group, even though disagreeing with aspects of the arbitration decision, has nevertheless agreed to respect it and agreed to delegate three of its members to help the Implementation Group implementing the arbitration decision. The implementation is ongoing.

===Other matters===

The Working Committee is also involved in the following topics, which are still on-going and not yet concluded:

*TDC restructuring
*Preparing for the 50th anniversary celebrations.
*Trademark protection of the name of Auroville
*Special Guests Coordination (jointly with the MM Access Team)
*Aurovilians not living in and working for Auroville (jointly with the FAMC)
*Aspiration Sports Ground
*Sludge Disposal
*Mailand Trust (jointly with the FAMC)
*Rayapettei Asset (jointly with the FAMC)
*Auroville Health Services
*Eco Service

'''[[Entity::Land board]] report May and June 2015

Encroachment, exchange, purchase, protection, maping and admin issues covered in May and June 2015

#We are happy to share that the Auroville Foundation has won the case going on at the Vanur court against Murugan Ganesan (land behind Matrimandir – cycle path) due to the intense efforts put in by our advocate Narayan Bahety and we thank him wholeheartedly for his services.
#We have purchased R.S No 407/4 ext 1.60 acres that we took possession of, in the Inner city area close to Matrimandir. This piece was funded by Acres for Auroville
#We entered into an Agreement to sell for IR R.S.No.207/7,8 about 1 acre for a piece of land near Reve. This is in the City area.
#We purchased 66 cents of land in the Green Belt / Pitchandikulam BO 63/6B to consolidate that part of the land. Rs. 5 lakhs is being donated by the Pitchandikulam residents towards this purchase.
#Since January 2015 the Land Board has bought / taken possession of 8.61 acres of new land in the Master Plan area.
#Land board members with the facilitation of the Kuilapalayam cultural association group (Hari / Suryagandhi / Selvaraj) are having a series of dialogues with elected and traditional village leaders to evaluate the use of the lands within and around the settlement area of Kuilapalayam village. This is ongoing.
#All of you must be aware of the issue that happened in Srima where Auroville land was encroached by James court and the action we had taken with a large support group from Auroville. The Srima survey is to be completed. We wish to heartily thank each and every person who supported us and stood by while trying to solve the difficult problem.
#A long pending survey at Annapurna Farm was finished and FAMC approved funds to make a fence on that side of the boundary.
#Two important fencing projects at Bharatipuram and the International Zone have been initiated, as there has been creeping encroachments. FAMC has approved a ferrocement slab fence for these vulnerable boundaries.
#The Land Board members met with a FAMC sub group and LRD members to review the outlying lands which can be exchanged and developed. As Auroville cannot sell lands (prevented due to a Government Ordinance) any developments needing outside finances are not viable due to this limitation.
#The Land Board would like to appeal to all Aurovilians to monitor the fences in their settlements, forest and farms to prevent encroachment and contact the land board if there are any encroachments and land grabs.
#We met with members of the Housing Board to identify plots where there should be caretakers living on the land to counter potential encroachment and land grab.
#We met with our advocate Narayan Bahety along with the Working Committee and Secretary in charge, regarding the new case assigned to him. PK Devdass, a neighbor has filed a case against the Auroville Foundation and Bernd and this case is now going on at the Vanur court.
#More than 160 patta transfers were pending from previous purchases and exchanges. Land Board has initiated the tedious process of completing and updating the land records at the Sub Registrar Office Vanur to finish this vital and important step to correct the Government records.
#We continue to meet FAMC regarding encroachment and land purchase issues regularly.
#For all units interested to buy firewood or timber quality wood you may please contact (0413 262 2657) and fix an appointment.

:How encouraging it is to know that the extended Auroville community and so many friends and well-wishers around the world have contributed to make A4A Phase 1 a success! It was hard to imagine a year ago, when the campaign started, that such concerned and generous response would be forthcoming, given the global financial crisis and its repercussions on available individual resources.

:It is certainly thanks to the untiring efforts of the extremely dedicated A4A team - Mandakini, Aryadeep, Sigrid, Jothi, plus Sathish’s COLAAP website team - that this success has become possible. Their regular, open communication, their frequent reminders and intense collaboration with the newly established Land Board team plus their transparent accounts and regular financial reporting to the AVI Board have built up trust and momentum. It has dynamised a big wave of collaboration, generosity and creativity, generating a beautiful bunch of fundraising ideas among the AVIs and individuals alike. Chapeau to all of you!

:I would like to express my special appreciation to Aryadeep, who can truly be called the veteran of land activism, being active in this field for 17 years now. It is thanks to him that donors were regularly contacted over all of these years and reminded in a very creative and inspiring way. Also AVI has profited a lot from his data base and outreach activities. It is thanks to his presence that A4A - this joint AVI-LFAU action - could find place. He just dropped me a line saying that he is presently on a sabbatical - it is certainly a very well deserved break! Please take a good rest to upload your batteries, dear Aryadeep! A4A-Phase 2 (bringing more positive news for all of us) is calling!

News & Notes 608:Proposal for a restructuring of the TDC

2022-02-16T09:47:51Z

Meera archives:

{{NN article header|number=608|date=01 July 2015}}
[[Year::2015| ]][[Month::08| ]]
'''[[Entity::Work group report]] Proposal for a restructuring of the TDC

The Governing Board, in its 46th meeting in March, have asked the [[Working Committee]] to reconstitute the TDC after consultation with the TDC Advisory Group and with the Chairperson of the TDC. An extract of the minutes of the GB has been published on the Auronet as Annex A to this Proposal.

Sauro, on behalf of the TDC, has informed the Working Committee that there are at present five vacancies, namely in the areas of (1) Urban Planning, (2) Socio economic, (3) Administration Accounting and reporting, (4) Fund raising and networking, and (5) Communication and Consultation.

The Working Committee has been discussing how best to do fill these vacancies and how best to answer to the observation of the Governing Board made in its 46th meeting, “The Board felt that the TDC team should be strengthened, particularly in areas of implementation of the planned development and faster execution of infrastructure works.”

The Working Committee has requested (1) the members of the TDC Advisory Council, (2) those who have participated in the recent task force on Town Planning during the retreat, and (3) the TDC, to send us their views on:

#What has worked and what has not worked in the present TDC set-up;
#What the best possible structure for the TDC could be, taking into account:
#*The (non or limited) availability of skills in Auroville to fulfil the various functions;
#*The observations of the Board on the non-desirability of payment of consultancy fees to the Residents of Auroville and the Units under Auroville Foundation;
#*The strong differences of opinion regarding the desirability of implementing the present Master Plan which may make cooperation within the TDC very difficult.
#Whether the TDC Advisory Group should continue and if so, how its functioning could be improved.
#If it is desirable / possible that certain parts of the work of the TDC, for which skilled Auroville residents are not available, can / should be done by a professional town planning office elsewhere in India, whereby the TDC would act as an interface between the Auroville residents and the professionals.

This request – even though it has been repeated – has met with limited responses. Only Toine (member of the TDC Advisory Council), Suhasini, Monna, Satprem and the TDC have responded.
The TDC legal status and an extract of the main responses and of some of the Working Committee’s own observations have been published on the Auronet as Annexes B and C to this Proposal.

On the basis of these responses and its own observations, the Working Committee has formulated a proposal for the restructuring of the TDC.

'''Proposal for a restructuring of the TDC '''

#The present system of TDC coordinators of various work areas is discontinued.
#A Town Development Service (TDS) is created, consisting of 5 or more individuals, as decided by the Residents’ Assembly, working full-time, who prepare and execute the decisions of the TDC.
#The TDC is re-constituted as a working group which takes all decisions regarding the work of the TDC, as prepared by the TDS and otherwise, and to which the TDS reports. The TDC meets as and when required, but at least once a week. The TDC will consist of 9 or more individuals, as decided by the Residents’ Assembly.
#Members of the TDS will attend the meetings of the TDC but have no right to vote.
#The TDS may have a staff as considered necessary by the TDC.
#The TDC will take decisions preferably by consensus. In cases where no consensus can be reached, decisions will be taken by majority vote.
#All planning and development works to be done will be outsourced to qualified and experienced professionals within or outside Auroville.

'''The role of the new TDC will be:

#They are the ‘client body’ on behalf of Auroville for all work that is being outsourced, both to professionals within and outside Auroville and ensure that the work gets done and is paid for.
#They act as the interface between the community and the professional. For example, the TDC informs the RA about a draft mobility master plan or a detailed development plan and interacts with the rofessional regarding the feedback received.
#They are responsible for ensuring that ‘first drafts’ become ‘final drafts’ and then ‘Residents’ Assembly approved plans’.
#They are the client body for any infrastructural work to be done in Auroville and supervise the tendering of the work.
#They finalize budgets for submission to the Auroville Foundation for inclusion in the [[GOI Grant]] and for separate fundraising and ensure that utilisation certificates are submitted tin time.
#Based on the guidelines given to architects and approved plans, they give site and building permissions.
#They ensure that projects as approved are being executed.

Amongst the first responsibilities of the new TDC are:

#With the Galaxy concept as starting point for planning and development of Auroville, define (1) the Terms of Reference (TOR) outlining the principles of planning and development and (2) a realistic population growth pattern for the next 5/10 years, as required. Once made, the TDC Board needs to get these approved by the RA as the guidelines for Auroville’s planning and development.
#Define the work areas and deliverables of each area in terms of content and time. This should include the detailed development plans and master plans for infrastructure segments (mobility, water supply, communication, waste water) by what date(s), as well as the guidelines (bylaws) to be given to architects.

'''Constitution, accountability and term of office

In this proposal, the TDS and the TDC will be constituted by and be accountable to the Residents’ Assembly. They are selected in a process similar as was done for the selection of the members of the Working Committee, and Auroville Council, with precise job descriptions and needed qualifications.

The Residents’ Assembly, at any time, will have the right to remove any of the members of the TDS and TDC and replace them with other persons as members if it considers that this is in the larger interest of the community of Auroville.

The members of the TDS and TDC shall hold office for a period of four years. After the first two years of functioning, two members of the TDS and four members of the TDC shall retire and new members shall be appointed in their place. After four years, the other members of the TDS and TDC shall retire. Outgoing members are eligible for re-appointment for 2 more terms.

Any vacancy arising either by way of resignation, expiry of term of office, or otherwise, shall be filled up by the Residents’ Assembly.

The Standing Order and Office Order issued by the Governing Board regarding the present TDC will be terminated. Also the TDC Advisory Group will be dissolved.

'''Comments on the proposal

An earlier draft of this proposal has been sent to Toine, Suhasini and Sauro for their comments. Their comments have been published on the Auronet as Annexes D – F to this Proposal.

The proposal has also been discussed with Shri B.V. Doshi during his visit to Auroville on Jul 18th. He welcomed the attempt to find a new structure as the present one hasn’t worked, but warned that no structure will function unless the community has a process in place which ensures that approved plans can be executed. A transcript of the discussion with Shri Doshi has been published on the Auronet as Annex G to this Proposal.

'''Request for feedback

We would appreciate having the community’s feedback and suggestions for the improvement of this proposal. The Working Committee would like to present a community-approved proposal to the Governing Board in its meeting in October this year.

Until the community has reached earlier an agreement on a restructuring proposal, the present TDC will continue to function.
