The Hässelby-Vällingby district council will review a citizen proposal to fence the dog park at Melonparken, as the submitter believes few dogs can run unleashed there without risking running onto the footpath and that dogs need larger areas for free play. The district administration plans to place the first new dog park in the western part of the district for even distribution but will consider the request regarding Melonparken in its ongoing work to add more dog parks.

The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council will address a citizen proposal to close or restrict access to the road leading to Nälstaskolan's staff parking. A citizen believes that car traffic on Trolle Bondes Gata creates an unsafe and hazardous situation for children at the start and end of the school day, as many parents drive into the staff parking lot to drop off their children close to the school. The District Administration proposes that the council approves their official statement and forwards the matter to the Traffic Office and SISAB, as they lack authority over streets and school properties.

A 12-year-old citizen proposed that the Hässelby-Vällingby City District Board build a large concrete skatepark at Oxtungan playground. The City District Administration thanks the citizen for the suggestion and will incorporate the idea of a skatepark into future work developing outdoor environments, especially within the initiative for prioritized outer city areas, which includes Hässelby Gård.

The Hässelby-Vällingby district administration proposes that the district committee approves an upgrade of Hässelängen playground in Hässelby gård. The project, costing 18 million SEK and set for completion in 2027, aims to enhance accessibility, safety, and pleasantness through new activities, improved social areas, and strengthened natural values, based on resident feedback for benches, lighting, and new features.

The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council will address the City Audit's Annual Report for 2025. The report, which reviews the council's operations, finances, and internal controls, largely found the activities to be appropriate and economically satisfactory. However, it recommends improvements in payroll management, inventory control, and sample checks within elderly care.

The City Executive Board was informed about two consultation responses sent to the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency. Stockholm City supports the proposal to revoke current regulations for municipal and regional risk and vulnerability analyses (RSA) to avoid duplication, and also largely approves the proposed new regulations and general advice on security measures and training related to the EU's NIS2 cybersecurity directive. However, the City requests clarification on certain terms and the handling of cybersecurity requirements in existing agreements.

The board of Nynäshamns Mark AB approved the company's first quarterly report and forecast for 2026. The company, owned by Ports of Stockholm AB and Nynäshamn Municipality, manages land and facilities used by Nynäshamn Port, with all revenue derived from Ports of Stockholm AB. The company anticipates a break-even result for the full year, with no investments planned.

The EU Commission proposes a new regulation to boost climate-friendly technology production and reduce emissions within the EU. This entails public procurement, in which the City of Stockholm is a major player, requiring products like steel, concrete, and electric vehicles to have a low carbon footprint and be manufactured within the EU or free-trade agreement countries. While the City of Stockholm welcomes the proposal, it highlights potential increased costs and administrative burden due to unclear follow-up and verification processes, and its relation to other EU legislation.

The Moderates propose transforming Sergels Torg into a greener and safer Sergelpark, suggesting a conversion of the roundabout into a T-junction to create space for greenery and enclosing the area under the fountain for a secure indoor environment with more activities. However, the City Executive Board recommends rejecting the motion, citing ongoing development work and deeming major changes impractical due to technical, economic, and cultural-historical limitations, such as the difficulty of planting trees in a predominantly elevated structure.

A motion suggested Stockholm City investigate if the work tunnels in the new Östberga tunnel, built for storm drainage, could be used as shelters or protected spaces. The City Executive Board proposes that the City Council reject the motion, stating that the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency determines shelter needs and requirements, and the city should await their guidelines before further investigations.

A motion proposes that Stockholm City investigate using its properties and work tunnels as bomb shelters to strengthen civilian protection. The City Executive Board suggests rejecting this, stating that the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency determines shelter locations and funding, and the city awaits new legislation, state requirements, and funding decisions.

Council members Claes Nyberg and Ismail Ali (C) propose that the Education Administration collaborate with non-profit organizations for homework assistance in socioeconomically disadvantaged and crowded areas through "idea-driven public partnerships." They also suggest the city make venues available evenings and weekends to reduce educational disparities. However, the Education Committee and the City Executive Office do not believe these partnerships are the appropriate collaboration model for homework assistance, arguing it falls within the school's mission. The Homework Foundation, though, is positive about the motion and welcomes cooperation.

The Center Party has proposed Stockholm investigate evening school hours for students, or "evening hangouts," to provide safe and free meeting places, especially where these are lacking, and in cooperation with civil society. However, the Education Committee and the City Executive Office deem such an investigation unnecessary given existing recreational activities, while the Järva District Council believes the need in their area is limited.

Dennis Wedin (M) has proposed that the City of Stockholm develop clearer guidelines and a simpler permit process for sponsorship and naming rights at municipal sports facilities. This aims to help sports clubs, like Spånga ice hockey club, secure sponsor revenue to keep fees low for children and young people. However, the City Executive Office and the Sports Committee reject the proposal, stating that similar work is already underway and that managing naming rights fairly for facilities shared by many clubs presents legal challenges.

Councillor Jonas Naddebo (C) proposed that the Sports Committee and the Real Estate Committee be tasked with expanding regional collaboration on sports facilities to address the current shortage and encourage more children and young people to be active. However, the City Executive Board suggests rejecting the motion, citing existing work methods and collaborations, despite several referral bodies expressing support for increased cooperation, particularly for specialized sports.

Councillor Hanna Wistrand (L) proposed an investigation into the long-term needs and funding for leisure activities for children and young people with disabilities, citing limited and uneven opportunities. However, several bodies, including the City Executive Office and the Sports Committee, contend that sufficient collaboration already exists through various networks and a regional parasport model, suggesting no further action is needed. Liberals and Moderates have reserved their position, arguing current efforts are insufficient and a broader investigation with a long-term funding model is necessary to ensure equality.

Svenska kraftnät has applied for a new temporary network concession for a 13.8 km 220 kV double power line between Hagby and Järva. The city of Stockholm supports extending the concession, which expired in 2021, given the line's importance for electricity supply until a new, reinforced grid is established and the current line can be dismantled. However, Stockholm points out inaccuracies in the application regarding the line's current route in Kista and requests broader concession areas near the E4 to facilitate a national football center.

The City Council will decide on an addendum to the development agreement for Årstafältet's block 2G, where Granitor Property Development AB wishes to transfer its contractual obligations and guarantor responsibility to its project company, MPD Virtuosen Grund 3 AB, which will then be transferred to Klövern AB. This change is considered positive as Klövern AB will assume the guarantor role for this investment exceeding 50 million SEK, requiring council approval. The first occupancy is estimated for mid-2030.

A motion by Johan Paccamonti (M) proposes halting development on Solviksängen in Bromma, instead incorporating it into the Ålstensskogen and Storskogen nature reserve to protect green spaces and promote building on already developed land. However, the City Executive Board suggests responding that Solviksängen is deemed suitable for housing according to the city's comprehensive plan, and environmental impacts will be assessed during the detailed planning process.

Moderates proposed that the city develop a strategy for creating more pocket parks and green walls in Stockholm to make the city greener and more pleasant. However, several administrations, including the City Executive Office and the Planning and Exploitation Committees, believe the city's current efforts already address these goals, rendering a specific pocket park strategy unnecessary.
