Council not in the sense that it's a central committee but a meeting open for every member. And that's how commons are commonly organized. Community organized by themselves with rules everyone agreed on.
Commons are common all over the world. It's not a concept of some armchair socialists. It was the armchair guy who came up with the tragedy of the commons and went on to privatize existing and working commons. Empirical scientists went on the study existing commons. The question isn't can they work, we know empirically they do.
The affor mentioned podcast episode is very informative. Andrewism also has a video about that topic.
