All agenda items

The Farsta District Council is to respond to a referral from the City Executive Board regarding a new national activity requirement for individuals receiving social assistance. This requirement, proposed to take effect July 1, 2026, would obligate municipalities to offer activities leading to employment and self-sufficiency. Farsta's administration supports the proposal that the Labor Market Committee be primarily responsible for these activities in Stockholm, aiming for a clearer and more uniform process.

The Farsta City District Administration is to respond to a consultation from the City Executive Board regarding an action plan for a gender-equal Stockholm by 2030. While the administration supports the plan's ambitions to ensure equal rights and opportunities for all residents regardless of gender, it highlights the need for more resources for boards and companies to implement the many new goals. It also calls for a specific goal within the action plan addressing the city's responsibility as an employer.

A motion by Sergej Salnikov (SD) proposes that the city investigate establishing more practice driving areas for motorcycles, as the current single location at Älvsjömässan is reportedly overcrowded. The Farsta City District Administration, tasked with commenting on the proposal, stated they have limited knowledge of the matter and no jurisdiction over the relevant areas.

The Farsta City District Committee is to approve a basis for Stockholm City's housing plan for people with disabilities under LSS and SoL for the years 2026–2036. The plan aims to better meet the need for special housing and reduce out-of-contract placements, with an estimated need for 323 new apartments in the eastern Söderort region by 2036, ensuring more residents receive the housing they need, preferably in their home municipality.

The Farsta District Council proposes approving the budget document for 2027, with a focus on 2028 and 2029, and submitting it to the City Executive Board. This document outlines the council's strategic priorities and needs for the coming years, particularly addressing population growth in Farsta, especially among the elderly, and socioeconomic challenges in areas like Hökarängen, Farsta strand, and Fagersjö. Climate investments are also proposed, including charging stations for electric cars, e-bikes for elderly care, and climate adaptation measures like stormwater management and awnings for care homes.

The Moderates in Farsta inquired with the district administration about ensuring associations receiving city support meet democratic conditions, citing examples like Ibn Rushd and Konsthall C. The administration proposes the committee approve their response, detailing how they review associations' statutes, annual reports, and activity reports. The administration believes the current democratic conditions are effective and sees no need for revision.

The Farsta District Council will address a letter from theigesdemokraterna (SD) regarding association grants to Konsthall C. SD questions these grants due to Konsthall C's support for the BDS campaign (boycott, divestment, and sanctions against Israel), arguing this violates the city's democratic conditions. The administration proposes the council approve their response, which asserts that Konsthall C does not breach the democratic conditions, as they have confirmed everyone is welcome regardless of cultural identity, belief, or nationality. Konsthall C receives association grants for initiatives including Hökarängens dag and a values-based public partnership (IOP) for art in preschools.

A citizen proposal was submitted to the Farsta District Council regarding Nazi propaganda and xenophobic messages, specifically graffiti and stickers, found in Farsta and at Martinskolan in Hökarängen. The proposal calls for immediate cleanup, police reports, enhanced cooperation, public information on reporting incidents, support for victims, and educational initiatives. The administration will respond by stating they already adhere to city guidelines for combating violent extremism through prompt removal of graffiti, collaboration with police and civil society, and the availability of support and training.

A citizen proposed that the Farsta District Council develop a plan to restore trees in Sköndal, as many have been lost to construction. However, the administration believes a specific plan for Sköndal is unnecessary since responsibility for trees is shared among several parties and replanting efforts are ongoing yearly according to city-wide tree goals. The Council will respond with the administration's statement.

A citizen proposed converting the football pitch at Rottnerosbacken into a dog park, arguing it was underutilized. However, the Farsta District Administration suggests rejecting the proposal because several residents have contacted them, stating the pitch is indeed used and they do not want a dog park there.

The Farsta District Council will consider two citizen proposals to create an ice rink in Tallkrogen. The proposals suggest converting a football field at Olympiaparken/Lekplatsen Olympiavägen 9 into a skating rink to improve access to ice skating for children and residents. The administration recommends referring the proposals to them for further preparation.

The Skarpnäck District Council is set to review a letter regarding training for ongoing deadly violence (PDV). Three politicians (C, L, M) have inquired about current routines, whether staff have received PDV training, and if council politicians should receive it. The administration responds that routines for threats and violence, including PDV scenarios, are in place and part of a city-wide procurement for PDV training for staff. However, the administration does not consider council politicians a target group for PDV training, though they can provide information on crisis management.

The Skarpnäck District Council is set to discuss the appointment of data protection officers. These officers will ensure the council correctly handles personal data under GDPR and the Criminal Data Act, especially concerning work with the Social Services Act (SoL), the Act on Care of Young Persons (LVU), and the Act on Care of Abusers (LVM). The administration proposes Isabelle Wall be appointed data protection officer for May, and Amanda Johansson for June through August, while the regular officer, Julia Ögren, is absent.

The Skarpnäck District Council is set to review revised routines for Lex Sarah, which concerns reporting and rectifying deficiencies within social services and support for disabled individuals. The aim is to clarify these routines and align them with the delegation order, ensuring that shortcomings are quickly identified and addressed.

A citizen proposal has been submitted to create a nature and culture trail on existing footpaths around Spånga Church, complete with reference and information signs.

The Järva City District Administration has commented on Region Stockholm's proposed SL and WÅAB traffic changes for 2026/2027. While positive about increased service, the administration stresses the need for better bus connections from southern Järva to Barkarby, specifically to the shopping area and the new public transport hub at Barkarby station. They propose an urgent investigation into a bus route connecting Spånga-Rinkeby-Tensta/Hjulsta-Barkarby Station-Barkarby Shopping Centre.

The Järva District Council will review a proposed new program for events in Stockholm, aiming to strengthen the City's position as an event hub and guide coordinated efforts across boards and companies. While the administration supports the program, it suggests clarifications to bolster sustainability and rights perspectives, particularly by prioritizing events for underrepresented groups such as people with disabilities, children, the elderly, and residents of socio-economically vulnerable areas.

The City Executive Board has circulated a proposed action plan for a gender-equal Stockholm by 2030 for consultation, including to the Järva District Council. This plan aims to ensure Stockholmers have equal rights and opportunities regardless of sex. While Järva's district administration is positive towards the plan, it suggests additions to clarify the city's priorities in gender equality work and more explicitly include the living conditions of non-binary individuals.

A citizen's proposal suggests enlarging the notice boards in Järva to 1.5 sq m and adding roofs to protect posters from rain, helping local associations inform about events. The Järva City District Administration recommends rejecting the proposal as the Traffic Administration Office is responsible for city-wide notice board design, but will relay the feedback to them.

The Järva District Council is set to review the 2025 patient safety report for several care homes and service houses in Järva, including those in Kista and Rinkeby. The report indicates that these operations have systematically worked to enhance patient safety and are considered to provide good healthcare. The council is recommended to approve the report and file it.
