All agenda items

The Farsta district administration proposes to begin preparing meals in-house at preschools in Farsta Södra, while continuing with catering in Farsta Västra. This means 180 meals per day will be cooked in the administration's own kitchens in Farsta Södra, with Farsta Västra preschools maintaining their current caterer due to it being more cost-effective and functional. The transition in Farsta Södra requires investment in kitchen equipment and hiring new chefs.

The Farsta District Council will review the results of the 2026 user survey for elderly care day activities, specifically the Edö day center. While most of the 41 respondents are satisfied, feel secure, and find staff welcoming, fewer than before reported that the activities met their expectations and that their influence over activities had decreased. The administration proposes measures like individual discussions, monthly newsletters, and family collaboration to increase participation and meet future needs.

The Farsta City District Board proposes directing the administration to renovate the Forsängen park playground in Farsta strand. This renovation, estimated at 3 million SEK and planned for autumn 2026, will introduce new play features focusing on climbing, thematic play, and more greenery. The goal is to make the park more appealing, diverse, and accessible to a wider range of users, while also improving the environment based on visitor feedback and Farsta's local park plan.

The Farsta District Council will review a response to a letter from the Moderates, Liberals, and Centre Party regarding the insourcing of operations. The parties inquired about which operations were brought back, the number of users affected, cost development, and how quality is monitored and has changed. The Farsta District Administration has provided answers for areas including group homes for people with disabilities, the home care night patrol, food catering, and park maintenance, detailing costs and initial quality follow-ups. Some insourced operations have shown comparable or improved quality, while others are still being evaluated.

The Farsta District Council will review the July 2026 financial report, which projects a balanced budget for the full year after a fund transfer. However, a 6 million SEK deficit is expected before this transfer, primarily driven by costly placements in individual and family care (children and youth) and increased granted services in elder care, compounded by vacant units at Postiljonen care home after inspections. Conversely, the preschool sector anticipates a surplus despite fewer children, and the administration recommends approving the report.

Two citizen proposals suggest building an ice rink at Tallkrogen, specifically on the ball field at Olympiaplan. While the Farsta District Administration supports the idea, they cannot create the rink this upcoming winter due to a lack of water at the site. The administration proposes the ice rink could be established starting in the winter of 2027–2028, when a water tank with a heating unit will be available.

The Skarpnäck District Council will consider a citizen proposal to create a new meeting place for children and families in Björkhagen. The proposal has now been submitted to the district administration for further processing.

The City Executive Board has referred a motion from Andréa Hedin (M) to strengthen efforts against gang crime and the recruitment of young people. The motion proposes establishing a specialist team within social services for children and young people in criminal environments. However, Skarpnäck City District Administration believes that competence and experience should be built and maintained locally within regular operations, as the local level is best suited to handle these complex cases and crucial for collaboration with police and schools.

The Skarpnäck District Council is set to review a proposed city-wide job description for cultural coordinators in Stockholm. The aim is to standardize their role across the city, focusing on increasing residents' access to diverse and high-quality culture, especially for preschool children, youth in recreational activities, seniors, and people with disabilities. The administration supports the proposal and recommends the council submit its opinion on the matter.

The City Executive Board proposes a program to strengthen urban farming in Stockholm, focusing on six areas to increase cultivation, knowledge, accessibility, climate-smart solutions, and good management. While the Skarpnäck District Administration supports the program, it highlights that many proposals require additional funding and that district committees lack resources to coordinate and follow up on new demands. They also suggest prioritizing new garden plots and growing areas in districts currently lacking them, and that commercial small-scale farming should be managed centrally rather than locally.

The Skarpnäck District Council is set to review a proposed detailed development plan for Skarpnäck sports field. The plan aims to construct a new, larger sports facility including a sports hall, ice rink, and swimming pool, while also upgrading existing sports fields and creating a safer pedestrian and bicycle path across the area. The administration supports the development but has concerns regarding safety, the preservation of parkland and trees, and traffic flows, which they wish the City Planning Administration to consider.

The City Executive Board proposes revising how Stockholm allocates funds to city districts for financial assistance and labor market measures. This involves updating the model with new market values from 2022 and grouping residential areas into six attractiveness categories instead of eight, to better reflect actual needs. While not opposing in principle, the Skarpnäck District Administration desires a more comprehensive review that considers future reforms, as they estimate the new model could reduce their funding by approximately 0.9 million SEK.

The Skarpnäck District Council is set to discuss a letter from Lena Kling (L) concerning the health status of placed children and young people. The letter poses six questions to the administration about their follow-up of children's health, dental care, and vaccinations. The administration has responded, stating they systematically work to ensure these children receive the care they are entitled to, through health examinations, follow-ups, and cooperation with Region Stockholm.

A citizen proposed converting the Tätorp sports field into an artificial ice rink, citing a lack of outdoor rinks in the Skarpnäck district. However, the Skarpnäck District Administration recommends rejecting the proposal due to a lack of resources for construction and maintenance. Additionally, the Sports Administration cannot invest in the area as the field is currently classified as parkland, not sports land, despite their management.

A citizen's proposal to install signs at Flaten and Söderbysjön bathing spots, informing visitors not to urinate in the water and explaining the consequences, as well as for the city to state reasons for unsafe water, has been rejected. The Skarpnäck district administration argued that such signs are unnecessary, prone to vandalism, and incur costs. The city already tests bathing water and posts warnings for poor quality but cannot always pinpoint the exact cause due to multiple contributing factors.

A citizen proposal for an outdoor gym for seniors at Skarpnäcksfältet, featuring equipment lighter than heavy logs, will be forwarded to the Sports Administration. They are already planning to replace the current outdoor gym there with a new one suitable for all ages, similar to the one in Kärrtorpsparken, with Skarpnäcks sportfält being the most suitable location according to the Pensioners' Council and the administration.

The Järva District Council will be informed of several delegation decisions made by the administration. These decisions include referral responses regarding a pedestrian and cycling path, building permits for multi-family houses, a ground permit for altered ground levels at Trudelutten park, and event permits for Järvaveckan 2026, Eid celebrations, and theater performances.

A citizen proposal on climate work within the municipality has been submitted to the Järva District Council. The administration suggests the council task them with preparing the proposal, ensuring children's rights, disability, and gender equality perspectives are considered during the process.

The Järva City District Committee will provide input on the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency's proposed new rules for how municipalities receive compensation for collecting packaging waste. The aim is for producer compensation to better cover actual municipal costs and adapt to new collection systems implemented in 2027. Järva positively views strengthened compensation for high-density municipalities but believes the model should also consider the actual number of people in an area, not just registered residents, as this impacts waste volume and cleaning needs.

The City of Stockholm will submit an opinion to the government regarding the Swedish Energy Agency's proposal to develop the Climate Premium for electric-powered work machines. The proposal includes changing the support to specifically apply to electric machines, enabling support for leasing, and including charging solutions. The Järva City District Administration views the proposal positively, as it aims to accelerate the transition to fossil-free work machines and thereby contribute to Sweden's climate goals.
