The County Administrative Board inspected the municipality's handling of guardianships and 142 cases in November 2025, revealing serious deficiencies. These included long processing times for annual and final accounts, as well as problems with the supervision of children's funds and record-keeping. The administration has taken this criticism seriously and has begun implementing measures to improve management.

The City Executive Board's Economy and Security Committee approved several financial reports, including April 2026 monthly reports showing increased net costs and investments. The committee also approved a new 2 billion SEK loan facility with the Nordic Investment Bank to co-finance the Stockholm's Future Water Supply project and noted the planning assumptions for the 2027–2029 budget.

Region Stockholm proposes public transport changes for 2026/2027 to boost bus, tram, and boat ridership over car use. These include expanded night service, improved cross-town connections in southern Stockholm, and extending trunk line 6 to Solna Centrum. While some welcome the expansions, Stockholm City and various district committees feel the proposals don't go far enough to reduce car traffic and increase public transport use.

The City of Stockholm will comment on a proposal from the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention (Brå) to grant the Centre for Preventing Violent Extremism (CVE) expanded capabilities for processing personal data and strengthened confidentiality protection. While supporting the aim to improve CVE's work in preventing violent extremism and school attacks, Stockholm emphasizes the need for clear division of responsibilities, ensuring CVE's role remains supportive and advisory, not operational in individual cases.

The Swedish Police Authority proposes removing outdated general guidelines on blasting (RPSFS 2012:6, FAP 523-1) due to inaccuracies and incorrect legal references. While this isn't expected to directly affect the City of Stockholm, it will impact individuals and businesses applying for blasting permits as some requirements, such as those for blasting supervisors, will be removed or adjusted. The City Executive Board proposes informing the Police Authority that the City of Stockholm has no objections to the proposal.

The City Executive Board will review Stockholm's first triannual report for the 2026 budget, which provides a full-year forecast and assesses progress toward city goals.

The Liberal Party has questioned the City Executive Board about the situation in Värtahamnen ahead of the 2026 summer season, citing congestion, poor signage, and inadequate coordination impacting the city's reputation and safety. The City Management Office responded that work is underway to improve information, wayfinding, public transport, and the physical environment, including new signage, increased bus service, and a new park, as part of a long-term strategy to develop the area into a mixed urban environment.

The City Executive Board proposes approving a new program for events in Stockholm, replacing the previous one. This program aims to strengthen Stockholm's position as an event city, focus on sustainable development, and improve the quality of life for residents, with various committees emphasizing the need to highlight safety, environmental, and climate perspectives more clearly.

The City Executive Board is proposed to appoint Maria Jansén as the head of the Culture Administration, effective from September 1, 2026, until August 31, 2031. Her salary and employment terms will be determined by the City Director. This proposal has been negotiated with trade unions, who have raised no objections.

This agenda item presents an account of the municipal executive board's delegation decisions made between April 18 and June 8, 2026. These decisions include framework agreements for card services, procurement of cash handling and debt collection services, and renewed procurements within adult education.

A Moderate party motion proposed that elderly and disabled individuals receiving home care should be able to decline specific staff members due to perceived discomfort, without having to switch their entire home care provider. However, the majority and several committees deemed this already established practice, arguing that a formal requirement could lead to significant challenges such as scheduling difficulties, a deteriorated work environment, and a risk of discrimination.

The Liberals propose utilizing the empty statue plinth at Slussen for temporary art, suggesting an investigation into a regularly changing art model inspired by London's "Fourth Plinth" with external funding. However, the City Executive Board, Culture Administration, and City Management Office advise against this, citing existing plans for temporary art nearby and prioritizing a more equitable distribution of public art city-wide, although the City Planning Committee supports Stockholm Art being tasked with art for the plinth.

Council members Jan Jönsson and Anne-Lie Elfvén (L) proposed that Stockholm investigate implementing a model similar to Uppsala's "UppSam" to improve school support for children in foster care, citing their often fragmented schooling. However, several boards and administrations believe the city's current efforts, like Skolfam and school coordinators, are sufficient or that similar strategies are already being developed. Therefore, the City Executive Board suggests rejecting the motion without further investigation into a new model.

The City Executive Board will consider a statement to the Administrative Court regarding an appeal of the City Council's decision to transfer the property Södermalm 7:89, where the Slussen bus terminal is located, to Region Stockholm. This decision, appealed by private individuals and reviewed by multiple instances, prompts the City Management Office to propose that the City Executive Board approve the legal department's statement, which addresses the complainants' objections.

The Moderates propose that Bostadsförmedlingen i Stockholm investigate adjusting its guidelines to help victims of economic violence access rental properties via the ordinary queue, aiming to prevent individuals from being trapped in abusive relationships due to shared homeownership with an abuser. While victim support organizations welcome the proposal, the City Executive Office and Stockholm City Hall AB believe existing priority structures address the issue but acknowledge a broader analysis of regulations would be needed for changes to the ordinary queue.

This report summarizes new cases and protocols from May 21 to May 27, 2026. Among the new cases, it is proposed that a detailed development plan for Kylhuset 26 and others in Slakthusområdet stage 2A, Kulturkvarteren in Johanneshov, be approved. This plan includes offices, a town center, a high school, and other businesses, which is important for urban development in the area.

Farsta District Administration proposes that the District Council submit the administration's statement to the City Executive Board as a response to the referral regarding a revised cultural strategy program for the City of Stockholm. The new program is intended to provide clear direction for the city's future cultural initiatives and specifies, among other things, that district councils are responsible for integrating culture into district development, creating a vibrant local cultural life, and ensuring equitable access to culture for all residents. However, the administration notes that activities within social psychiatry and disability are not mentioned as important target groups in the program.

The Farsta District Council is to submit its statement to the City Auditors regarding the 2025 annual report. The City Auditors found that the council largely conducted its operations effectively and economically satisfactorily, but that its internal governance and control are only partially adequate. Among other things, the council needs to improve follow-up in elderly care, children's safety in preschools, and payment card handling.

Farsta City District Administration proposes that the City District Committee approves the report on the 2025 user surveys concerning disability and social psychiatry. The surveys, covering services like daily activities and various residential supports under LSS and employment services under SoL, generally indicate that users are satisfied with the support they receive. The administration has analyzed the results at the unit level, and identified areas for development will be incorporated into the 2026 operational plans.

A motion to halt development on Myrberget in Bromma and protect it as a green space was rejected by the City Executive Board, which recommended the City Council vote against it. While the motion emphasized the area's natural, recreational, and educational value, the Executive Board and other city departments found that planning should continue to meet housing needs, including LSS housing, while still aiming to preserve green qualities. However, the Moderates and Centre Party submitted reservations, advocating for the motion's approval and a child impact assessment.
