The Farsta District Council has approved a report on user surveys from 2025, which showed that disabled individuals under 65 in Farsta are generally satisfied with home care and short-term stays, although satisfaction is slightly lower than the city average. These results, including improved satisfaction with case managers, will be used to continuously develop and enhance care services.

The 2025 user survey for Farsta district's park playgrounds, youth centers, and open preschools shows that visitors are generally very satisfied and feel safe in the activities, which are seen as important social meeting places. Although more children and young people feel involved, 19 percent of adults perceive safety deficiencies in the outdoor environment of park playgrounds, which the administration will work to improve during 2026. There are also requests for better equipment in park playgrounds, longer opening hours at open preschools, and a continued focus on increasing girls' participation in youth centers.

The City of Stockholm, in collaboration with Nacka Municipality, has adopted a local action program for Strömmen to improve its water quality. Strömmen currently suffers from poor ecological and chemical status due to pollution from urban environments, storm and wastewater, and contaminated sediments. The program proposes measures to reduce the spread of environmental toxins and enhance habitats for plants and animals, aiming for cleaner water in the long term, despite potentially significant costs.

The Farsta District Council proposes significant investments in three parks between 2027 and 2029 to enhance local areas. Plans include an activity park at Farstaängen (approx. SEK 27.4 million), an improved beach park at Farstaängsvägen (approx. SEK 29.5 million) with more accessible waterfront areas, and new entrances to the future Majroskogen nature reserve (approx. SEK 10 million). These projects aim to provide more recreation, increased accessibility, and a safer environment for Farsta residents.

The Farsta District Council has approved its 2025 activity report and financial statement, showing a surplus of SEK 3.5 million. The council decided to reallocate SEK 0.8 million, originally for upgrading a playground in Forsängen, to projects including lighting for the Fagersjö exercise track, citizen proposals, and renovating wading pools. Furthermore, funds were reallocated for renovating park paths and another playground, with an accumulated net of SEK 13.4 million carried over to 2026.

A citizen suggested clearing undergrowth and felling trees at Kojparken playground in Farsta to make it brighter and safer. The Farsta City District Committee decided to clear undergrowth around the playground but will not fell any trees. This is because the trees are considered important for biodiversity in an ecologically particularly significant area.

A citizen proposed building a dog park in Gubbängsparken to provide a safe space for the area's many dog owners and enliven the park in the evenings. Farsta City District Administration supports the idea but suggests a western placement to minimize disturbance for residents and potentially relocate an existing dog park in Tallkrogen. The estimated cost of 700,000 SEK is not budgeted for 2026, but the administration intends to seek funding for construction in 2027.

A citizen proposed that the Farsta District Council develop a plan to renovate and restore the tree population in Sköndal, noting that many trees have been lost or damaged near the Willys shopping center and along Sandåkravägen, reducing green spaces and noise protection. The Farsta District Administration suggests referring the citizen's proposal to the administration for further preparation and processing.

The City of Stockholm is preparing a new action plan to become a more age-friendly city, aiming to ensure older residents can live active, safe, and participatory lives free from ageism, focusing on areas like housing, urban environment, and social community according to the WHO model. Enskede-Årsta-Vantör's Senior Citizen Council welcomes this ambition but calls for more concrete proposals on how to achieve these goals and a clearer focus on the diversity of older people.

The Liberals propose a "District Boost" to expand the city's anti-crime and insecurity efforts beyond Järva to other vulnerable areas like Hagsätra and Skärholmen, requesting a clear action plan. The District Administration agrees on the need for broader initiatives but believes the city already focuses on similar areas in southern Stockholm, suggesting that existing structures be further developed rather than introducing a new parallel system.

The City of Stockholm has developed a new food program, "Good food for health, climate, and environment," to guide more sustainable meals in preschools, schools, and elder care. This program sets ambitious goals, including increasing organic food, reducing climate impact from food by 40% by 2030, and minimizing food waste. While the Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration welcomes the program, they suggest improvements such as a wider range of organic products in procurement, clearer guidelines for food waste and local produce, and reviewed routines to ensure safe meals for children with allergies.

The City of Stockholm is adopting a local action program to improve the poor water quality in Strömmen, which is currently polluted by metals and chemicals, among other things. The program proposes measures such as cleaning contaminated bottoms, purifying stormwater from roads and the city, and improving habitats for animals and plants, aiming to meet EU environmental water standards and ensure a healthy aquatic environment for residents, which will also facilitate future housing development in the city.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district council plans to open a "Fritidsbanken" in Högdalen by September 2026, where residents can borrow sports and outdoor equipment for free. They have approved leasing a premises at Skebokvarnsvägen 370 for 0.7 million SEK annually, and to facilitate a swift start, renovations up to 1.5 million SEK are authorized to begin immediately, even before the final lease agreement is complete.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör City District Committee plans to procure services for winter road maintenance and certain park upkeep, such as grass cutting in public areas and roadside maintenance. This procurement will be done in collaboration with the Farsta, Skarpnäck, and Skärholmen City District Administrations. This means that snow removal and some park maintenance tasks will continue to be handled by external contractors, even as the district takes over the majority of park maintenance in-house from 2026.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council decided to permanently move Sturebacken's LSS group home from Tussmötevägen 120D to Tussmötevägen 173 in Stureby by March 2026. This move is necessary due to resident disturbances at the current address, which led to legal action. The six residents, who have acquired brain injuries, will benefit from new, adapted premises and a lower monthly rent of approximately SEK 6,000-7,000.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council reviewed its 2025 operations and finances, largely meeting its targets. They approved an activity report detailing new safety investments in Enskede and Hagsätra, and a new day activity center at Bersågränd 9 with an annual rent of 3.8 million SEK. The Council also decided against renewing a park investment contract due to an entrepreneur's (Spectra Sverige AB) unreasonabily high pricing.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council needs to elect a new vice-chair and a substitute for its social delegation because the previous vice-chair, Nadin Fakhro (L), has resigned. This delegation makes decisions concerning residents' personal or financial circumstances, such as care for young people or substance abusers, and placing children in sheltered housing.

Politicians from the Moderate Party, Centre Party, and Liberal Party have requested a report on the costs and timeline for the new administrative building in Rågsved, whose occupancy has been delayed until autumn 2028. They expressed concern over rising costs and the need for financial discipline in the project. The district administration responded that despite the delay, they have control over costs and that the future rent for the new building is considered competitive compared to the market.

A citizen proposed establishing a second-hand exchange station in Rågsved, for example at Rågsved centrum, where residents could swap used items like clothes. The district administration views the proposal positively, as it benefits both the climate and community, but believes a suitable location and storage solutions need closer investigation to ensure the station can be kept clean and safe.

Children from Paletten preschool in Hagsätra suggested installing a trash can by the forest next to the preschool due to a lot of dog waste and litter. The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration welcomes the proposal and recommends placing a new trash can at the suggested location to improve the local environment.
