The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council approved the administration's statement regarding a proposed detailed development plan for part of the Enskede Gård 1:1 property near Hemskogsvägen in Stureby. This plan allows for approximately 54 new homes, 40 of which will be rental apartments and 14 tenant-owner apartments, on land that is partly natural forest within Hemskogen and partly features low-scale development. Several opposition parties, including the Liberals, Centre Party, Moderates, and Sweden Democrats, dissented, citing concerns over developing natural land with high ecological value, impacts on the cultural environment, and risks associated with stormwater management and cloudbursts, especially given previous flooding in Enskedefältet.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration proposes a non-profit public partnership (IOP) with Rågsveds IF to enhance safety and social control in Vantör. This collaboration aims to increase adult presence at Rågsved's football pitch for a safer environment, and lower barriers for children, especially girls and 10-12 year olds, to participate in leisure activities. The partnership also seeks to boost parental involvement in association life, thereby reducing the risk of exclusion and crime among young people.

The Liberal party inquired with the Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration about how they ensure elderly home care recipients are not abused and what preventive measures are in place. The administration responded that they maintain systematic quality control, including follow-ups according to social services law, criminal record checks during recruitment, and procedures for reporting misconduct via Lex Sarah or to the police. They also stated that these quality requirements apply equally to municipal and private providers, and support is offered to those affected.

A citizen proposed a splash pool in Rågsved and a bike pump in Högdalen/Rågsved. The district administration confirmed a splash pool is already planned for southern Rågsved as part of a zoning project. The request for a bike pump has been forwarded to the traffic office, which manages the city's bike pumps, with Högdalen and Bandhagen suggested as potential locations.

A citizen proposed adding two more barbecue areas to Bandängen play park, citing heavy use of the existing one. However, the Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration believes the current two are sufficient for the park's size and visitor numbers. They argue that more barbecue spots would reduce valuable green space, potentially harm the park's ecology, and lead to increased litter.

A citizen's proposal requested the Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council to support an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and review its procurement policy to exclude actors violating human rights and international law. The District Administration assessed that the Council lacks authority for foreign policy statements regarding Gaza, but noted that human rights and ethical trade are already covered by Stockholm City's existing procurement guidelines. Therefore, the administration proposes the Council approve its statement as a response to the citizen's proposal.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council will consider a citizen proposal from the Nya Enskede School Parents' Association to open a youth recreation center in Triangelparken, Gamla Enskede. The proposal highlights the risk of the current center at Enskedeskolan closing and the need for a safe, evening and weekend open meeting place for youth. The district administration has begun an investigation into the future of youth recreation centers and will consider the Triangelparken proposal as a potential option for the area.

A citizen proposal addressing recurring basement flooding in Enskede gård due to heavy rainfall suggests a pilot project for cloudburst management. The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration confirmed the issue stems from street design and stormwater network capacity, forwarding the proposal to the Traffic Department and Stockholm Vatten och Avfall. The district committee is now set to approve the administration's statement responding to the proposal.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration is reviewing a proposed common job description for cultural coordinators across Stockholm, aiming to clarify their role and improve residents' access to culture regardless of their location. The administration suggests the district board approve the statement, which notably prioritizes children and people with disabilities in cultural initiatives.

Council members Jan Jönsson and Anne-Lie Elfvén (L) proposed that Stockholm explore implementing the "Scotland Model" to provide faster and more coordinated support for at-risk children and youth through improved collaboration between schools, social services, healthcare, and police. The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration, while acknowledging the importance of early interventions, believes similar models like the Preschool Team and SSPF (school, social services, police, and recreation) already exist. Therefore, the administration suggests prioritizing the development of these well-functioning existing collaboration models instead.

A motion proposes that the City of Stockholm investigate implementing a municipal compensation system for individuals who experienced abuse or serious neglect within social care after 1980, as a state system only covered those affected between 1920 and 1980. While Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration agrees that victims need redress, they believe this complex issue should be investigated at a national level to ensure consistent and legally sound handling across the country.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district council will consider a proposal from Andréa Hedin (M) to strengthen efforts against gang crime and youth recruitment. The proposal suggests that the City of Stockholm's overarching reinforcement team should gain specialized expertise in children and youth involved in crime, along with a clearer mandate to manage and guide gang-related cases. While the district administration agrees on the importance of preventing youth from entering criminality and supports the city-wide team, they recommend that the primary work with at-risk children and youth continue within the district administrations' regular operations to maintain local expertise.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör City District Council will appoint named officials to request assistance from the Police or Prison and Probation Service when making decisions about care or custody under the Act with Special Provisions on the Care of Young Persons (LVU). This is due to staffing changes and ensures the council can act quickly to protect young people in need of care, superseding previous appointments.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör City District Council will consider a proposal to authorize specific officials to request police assistance for enforcing decisions on protected housing for children, in accordance with the new law effective April 2024. This decision will supersede previous authorizations, granting this power to newly designated officials for 2026.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council will consider updating its delegation of authority for 2026, which allows it to transfer decision-making power in certain matters to various officials for more efficient administration. These updates are necessary due to recent legal changes concerning financial assistance and the handling of agreements for placing children and young people under the Social Services Act and the Act with Special Provisions on the Care of Young People.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council will address a letter from Peter Backlund (L) concerning the health status of children in care. The letter inquires about the district administration's follow-up on these children's health, dental care, and vaccinations. The administration reports having structured individual-level processes and plans to recruit a health coordinator to strengthen systematic group-level follow-up and gain a better overview of health development over time.

Emelie Wassermann (SD) has raised concerns that the reorganisation of preschools in Enskede-Årsta-Vantör has left principals with too many employees, potentially impacting leadership and quality. The district administration acknowledges the high number of employees per assistant principal and states that measures are underway, including recruiting more assistant principals and reviewing preschool areas, to ensure present leadership. While they believe the new organisation generally offers good support, adjustments to the management structure are ongoing.

Emelie Wassermann (SD) submitted an inquiry regarding how the Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration handles severance pay for employees suspected of inappropriate or criminal behavior. The administration responded that they make careful assessments before offering severance and that their current disciplinary processes are fit for purpose, proposing that the district council approve their statement as a reply.
