All agenda items

The Social Services Administration proposes that Gulan Avci (L) be appointed as a member and deputy chair of the Social Services Committee’s Licensing Committee for the remainder of 2026. She is proposed to replace Jan Jönsson (L), who stepped down from his assignments effective June 15, 2026.

The Social Services Administration proposes that the Social Services Committee approve the follow-up of cooperation with nonprofit organizations providing temporary support to vulnerable EU and third-country nationals. From November 2025 to April 2026, a night shelter offered 56 places and recorded 8,829 overnight stays, while six day centers had 31,938 visits and provided food, showers, laundry, advice, and assistance in contacting authorities.

The Social Services Administration proposes that the Social Welfare Committee approve the annual statistics on reports to the Health and Social Care Inspectorate (IVO) and the police concerning suspected incorrect payments for personal assistance, and that the report be submitted to the City Council. Between February 2025 and March 2026, one IVO report was submitted by the Skarpnäck District Administration against an assistance coordinator; the material contains no reports to the police.

The Social Services Administration and the Education Administration propose that the committees approve the report on the 2026 Stockholm Survey and share it with all district committees. The survey is based on responses from 15,990 students at 184 schools and shows, among other things, that girls more often experience mental ill-health, school-related stress, and insecurity, while alcohol and gambling habits, as well as the use of nicotine and drugs, vary by gender and school year; the results will be used in the city’s preventive work with young people.

The Education Administration and Social Services Administration propose new joint guidelines for how schools and social services should cooperate regarding children and young people who are being harmed or are at risk of being harmed. The guidelines will replace those from 2009 and clarify responsibilities, procedures and support, so that children and families receive more equal and coordinated assistance regardless of where in Stockholm they live or attend school; the matter will then be submitted to the City Council.

The Social Services Administration proposes a housing plan for 2026–2035 covering group homes, service residences, and supported housing under the Act concerning Support and Service for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments (LSS) and the Social Services Act (SoL). If the planned projects are completed, approximately 890 new places will be added, but the city is still expected to lack around 270 homes by 2035; currently, there are approximately 1,800 places compared with a need for about 2,500.

The Social Services Committee is proposed to approve its interim report for January–August 2026, which follows up on operations, targets, finances, and the forecast for the rest of the year. The committee also proposes applying for a total of SEK 100.3 million in additional funding for, among other things, social investments, family counselling, costs for newly arrived residents, and the development of social services systems.

The Moderate Party proposes reviewing Stockholm’s long-term target of 140,000 new homes and stopping several planned construction projects in green areas. The Social Services Administration proposes approving the consultation response and warns that reduced or delayed construction could lead to longer waiting times and higher costs, as the city already lacks group homes, service homes, and supported housing under the Act concerning Support and Service for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments (LSS) and the Social Services Act (SoL). The projects in Karl Bondes skog and Nytorps Gärde are considered particularly important for people who need this type of housing.

The Culture Administration proposes investigating a combined library and arts school hub in Liljeholmen town centre, with a library, teaching facilities, a stage and meeting spaces for all ages. The administration will develop cost estimates and proposed lease terms in dialogue with the property owner, Citycon; a direction-setting decision is planned for 2028.

The Culture Administration proposes that Stockholm support a national investment programme for culture, including tax deductions for donations and public co-financing of private contributions. At the same time, the Administration stresses that private funds should supplement, not replace, public funding, and wants, among other things, to raise the proposed SEK 1 million limit for donations by individuals and find a solution that also includes organisations such as Folkoperan, Fasching and Zita Cinema.

The Sports Administration will report several decisions made under delegated authority, including the renovation and development of the basketball court on the roof of S:t Erikshallen at S:t Eriks Upper Secondary School, the temporary appointment of Niklas Pettersson as head of the administration from 20 to 28 September, and participation in an educational seminar in Bolzano. The matter also covers financial support for many sports associations, including support for low membership fees, adaptive sports equipment, informal football, environmental initiatives, and various sporting events.

The Property Committee is proposed to begin negotiations to purchase 13 cooperative apartments in the Hornsberg blocks on Kungsholmen for supported housing for people with disabilities. The housing will comprise approximately 500 square metres, of which around 80 square metres will be staff and communal areas, and is expected to be ready for use in 2029; the cost is estimated at approximately SEK 57 million.

The Real Estate Office proposes renovating the City Hall Tower with a new copper roof, repaired brick façade, restored cultural and historical details, and improved fire safety, lighting, and lightning protection systems. The work is proposed to begin in 2027 and be completed in 2028, after which the tower is expected to last for nearly 100 years; visitors may encounter a closed tower during two tourist seasons.

The Real Estate Office and the Sports Administration propose continuing the planning for new sports facilities at Vårberg Sports Ground, with construction scheduled to begin in spring 2027 and completion in spring 2028. The proposal includes a multisport court, four smaller basketball courts, table tennis tables, a motor skills course, climbing facilities, an outdoor gym, improved lighting, and a more accessible entrance to encourage informal sports and increase safety, especially for children and young people.

The Real Estate Administration proposes investigating the Philipsson Garage beneath Johannes Church ahead of a major modernization of the shelter and parking garage. The shelter can accommodate approximately 5,500 people and the garage around 250 cars; the investigation is estimated to cost up to SEK 8 million, and a completed renovation could be carried out no earlier than around 2028–2029.

The Real Estate Administration proposes that the city investigate modernizing the Katarinaberget special shelter beneath Södermalm, between Katarinavägen and Björns trädgård. The shelter can accommodate around 11,000 people, and the garage has space for 550 cars; the investigation is estimated to cost up to SEK 9 million, while the project could later cost more than SEK 300 million. The aim is to restore the shelter’s function and eventually open the garage for rental, with construction planned to start in 2028 and be completed in 2031.

The Real Estate Office proposes that the City investigate modernising the Vattugaraget special shelter beneath Klara Church in central Stockholm. The shelter can accommodate approximately 8,000 people and is currently used as a parking garage; the investigation will examine technical systems, the concrete structure and the parking facility’s function, with a budget of up to SEK 8 million. A preliminary refurbishment could take place in 2028–2029, but the total investment cost has not yet been determined.

The Real Estate Office proposes that the Real Estate Committee approve the response to questions about three-dimensional property formation, whereby different parts of the same building can be owned separately. The Office is working on possible solutions for Dalen 20, which includes senior housing and Sandsborgsbadet, and is also discussing Gjutmästaren 6 at Ulvsunda Sports Centre; such solutions could allow sports facilities alongside offices or housing but would require complex rules on responsibility, maintenance, and costs.

The Property Committee is proposed to approve the Property Office’s response to the consultation on a new tree policy for the City of Stockholm and forward it to the City Executive Board. The policy includes replacing every felled tree with two trees in the local area, increasing tree canopy cover to at least 30 percent in heat-exposed areas, and compensating locally for green spaces used in development. The Property Office welcomes the proposal but notes that implementation will require additional resources and better monitoring.

The Real Estate Office proposes that the City of Stockholm apply for membership in Husbyggnadsvaror HBV Förening, which offers procured framework agreements for building materials, appliances, locks and entrance systems, as well as operations and maintenance. Membership costs a one-time contribution of SEK 40,000 and could reduce the need for the city to conduct its own procurements, which the office says could lead to more efficient purchasing and better cost control.
