The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council noted the administration’s quarterly report on decisions concerning disability services, social psychiatry and elderly care that had not yet been implemented, and filed it.

The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council approved the administration’s statement on the detailed development plan for Kärrliljan 1 in Hässelby villastad. Members from the Moderates, Liberals and Centre Party called for lower buildings, better traffic and parking solutions, more greenery, and at least 300 square metres of ground-floor premises; their separate statement did not change the decision.

The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council approved the administration’s consultation response on how preschools can become more equitable and support children’s language development, and sent it to the City Executive Board.

The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council approved the administration’s response to the consultation on Stockholm’s climate adaptation plan.

The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council approved the administration’s response to the consultation on funding for day activities in elder care. The council supported adjusting funding in line with cost increases and raising the grant for premises, measures intended to strengthen services and make it easier to meet older people’s needs.

The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council approved the administration’s response to the consultation on shared guidelines for identifying, planning and following up on support for children in the city’s preschools.

The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council approved the administration’s response to a citizen proposal for a free outdoor swimming pool or for Nälsta pool to be upgraded for outdoor swimming. The Council forwarded the proposal to the Sports Administration, which is responsible for deeper swimming pools and would respond to it.

The committee approved the administration’s response to a citizen proposal for bicycle service stations with a water hose or compressed air to wash and dry bicycles. As the Traffic Administration is responsible for the city’s bicycle pumps, the proposal was referred to them for a response.

The committee approved the administration’s response to the citizen proposal to build a pump track for cycling in Oxtungan Park in Hässelby. The proposal will be considered in future work to improve outdoor spaces in the district.

The committee approved the administration’s response to the citizen proposal to stop the soil remediation at the allotments below Riddersvik Manor and move the allotment holders to Kyrkhamn.

The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council approved planning for a group home for people with disabilities at Fondbersån 2, in a building previously used as a preschool.

The department director reported on activities at preschools, including outdoor reading and Junibacken’s work to help children stop using diapers.

The Farsta District Council approved the proposal to adapt its delegation rules to the new Reception Act, which comes into force on 1 October 2026.

The Farsta District Council approved the administration’s response to the Liberals’ submission about concern reports from preschools and child health centres (BVC). The number of reports from both services increased between 2024 and 2025, and the administration described ongoing cooperation and measures such as training, clear procedures and designated contact preschools to identify children in need of support at an early stage; Camilla Bergman (L) made a positive special statement.

The Kungsholmen District Council responded to a written inquiry about how violence, abuse and other misconduct are prevented and handled in home care by submitting the administration’s response. It described recruitment checks, training and follow-up, and said incidents must be documented and investigated; in serious cases, a Lex Sarah report may be made to the Health and Social Care Inspectorate (IVO). The same requirements for safe care apply to municipal and private providers, and the council approved the administration’s proposal.
