All agenda items

Jonas Naddebo (C) proposed that the City of Stockholm encourage facilities with cattle, such as 4H farms, to test feed supplements that reduce methane emissions from cows for two years. However, the City Executive Board suggests rejecting the motion, stating that the city's existing environmental program and climate work already address the issue, and that emissions from cows in Stockholm are very small compared to the city's total climate impact.

Gabriel Kroon (SD) proposed that the City of Stockholm develop a system to measure the cost-effectiveness of biodiversity initiatives and that the Environment and Health Committee provide grants to private gardens and courtyards for biodiversity promotion. The City Executive Office and the Environment and Health Committee agree with the cost-effectiveness measurement but deem the grants to private actors legally complex and outside the committee's mandate. Therefore, the City Executive Board suggests rejecting the motion based on these points.

Jonas Naddebo (C) proposed Stockholm explore a "biocredit market" to attract private investment for ecosystem protection and restoration, thus funding biodiversity efforts. The City Executive Board suggests responding by referencing existing municipal work, while acknowledging a future biocredit market could be valuable and the city should monitor EU developments.

Jonas Naddebo (C) questioned the City Executive Board about Stockholm's snow dumping in Riddarfjärden, asking for guarantees that all permit conditions are met and when the city will permanently stop the practice. The response states that city management and several committees are working to minimize snow dumping and find alternatives, but it is currently necessary during heavy snowfall to maintain accessibility, and no definitive end date for ceasing the practice can be provided.

The City Executive Board will address a letter from Jan Jönsson (L) concerning Hillelskolan. He requests an analysis of how the City of Stockholm can support Hillelskolan, which is important for Jewish life in Stockholm and already receives an annual profile grant of SEK 1.84 million. The City Executive Office believes that additional grants to a single school risk violating both the Local Government Act and the Education Act, but proposes responding to the letter by noting that the city already provides a profile grant to both Hillelskolan and the municipal school Vasa Real to compensate for extra costs related to Jewish studies and security.

A motion by Andréa Hedin (M) proposes that the City of Stockholm launch a pilot project for "campus schools." This initiative would involve schools, in collaboration with associations and civil society, offering a wide range of after-school activities such as homework help, sports, and culture within school premises to provide children and young people with a safe and meaningful leisure time. The proposal suggests one school in each city district participate in the pilot project for evaluation.

Jan Jönsson (L) inquired about the city's handling of racist and extremist graffiti, particularly on private property and utility boxes, questioning if faster removal of hate messages and improved cooperation with private landlords for 24-hour cleanup is needed. The City Executive Office responded that while the city has quick routines (4-8 hours) for its own property, private owners are responsible for their surfaces, though the city is considering automatically forwarding reports. The city deems current educational efforts and collaborations sufficient, and the Executive Committee proposes answering the inquiry by referring to the City Executive Office's memo.

The City Executive Board will receive an update on Stockholm Vatten och Avfall AB's progress for major infrastructure projects exceeding SEK 1 billion, including Årstafältet phase 1, Sickla Coarse Purification part 2 installations, and the Exhibition Tunnel. This report ensures good governance and control of these extensive investments, which are crucial for modernizing water and waste systems and enabling new housing developments.

This item reports on new matters received by the City Council between June 11 and 17, 2026. These new matters include proposals for new housing in Södermalm and Aspudden, a detailed development plan for a city center, offices, and a preschool in Liljeholmen, and a motion to create a new recreational hub for young people in Norra Djurgårdsstaden.

At the meeting, Lisa Carlsson (S), chair of the Hässelby-Vällingby City District Council, and City District Director Gunilla Ekstrand presented their assignments. The Pensioners' Council raised questions about difficulties contacting "Äldre direkt" (Elderly Direct), regional collaboration, the possibility of urgently calling the "Trygghetsjouren" (Security Patrol), and housing pilots to assist seniors in homes without elevators. Additionally, feedback was given regarding bus routes 115 and the routing of 108 in Hässelby villastad.

The Hässelby-Vällingby district council rejected a citizen proposal to convert a gravel field into a dog park. However, the council noted a suggestion from the senior citizens' council that the gravel field could potentially be used for both casual sports and dog exercise, with priority given to sports. It was decided that in such a scenario, it would be especially important for dog owners to clean up after their dogs.

The District Administration reported increased staff continuity and no serious incidents like Lex Sarah or Lex Maria over the summer, although there were delays with alarm responses and key management in home care. Koppargården remained open with excursions and will offer early voting on September 1st, while there were also a couple of staffing changes, including the unit manager for security and civil cooperation leaving their position.

The Stockholm Social Committee decided that the Social Administration will evaluate the effects of extended serving hours during the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Based on this evaluation and new alcohol legislation, the committee will revise the city's guidelines for serving permits in 2027, including reviewing the permit process to shorten handling times. The Liberal and Moderate parties dissented, advocating for immediate permanent extension of serving hours and an investigation into 24-hour serving at a limited number of locations.

The board of Stockholm City's Parking AB approved the implementation decision to construct "M-houses" at Tensta Centrum, an investment of approximately SEK 25 million. The CEO was authorized to sign the necessary agreements, with specific statements made regarding the decision by both the S+V+MP and C+M parties.

The Board of Stockholm Parkering is proposed to approve the acquisition of a parking garage in Tensta Centrum for 8 million SEK, with an additional 17 million SEK allocated for renovations and safety measures, including EV charging, totaling an investment of approximately 25 million SEK. As part of the purchase, Stockholm Parkering must guarantee at least 150 visitor parking spaces until 2049, which requires a 20-year extension of the current ground lease agreement.

The Bromma District Council approved the administration's statement regarding the detailed development plan for Alviks strand. This plan proposes transforming Alviks strand into a mixed-use district with approximately 1000 homes, offices, two preschools, squares, parks, streets, and jetties. The administration noted that previous feedback has resulted in fewer homes, the removal of one school, and better preservation of natural values compared to the initial proposal.

The Skärholmen district council reviewed a "balance list" detailing ongoing assignments from the district administration. This list encompassed various matters, such as investigations into social service dogs, the rights of visually impaired individuals in crises, a citizen proposal for a music studio, dog exercise areas in Sätra and Bredäng, and the renovation of Parkleken Vårgården, with reporting dates extending to November 2026.

The Skärholmen District Council considered a request from Restaurant Tarantella at Bredängstorget 23 for temporarily extended serving hours during the men's 2026 FIFA World Cup. The restaurant sought to serve alcohol until 3:00 AM in both the restaurant and outdoor seating area between June 11 and July 14. The District Administration found no social impediments and referred the matter to the Social Administration's licensing unit for a final decision, following consultation with safety strategists, police, and field operations.

The Skärholmen Pensioners' Council noted that bus line 135 stopped serving the Rönnholmsgränd stop a year ago, as part of a planned two-year closure. Despite repeated appeals to Region Stockholm's Traffic Administration and Traffic Committee, no replacement service has been introduced, causing significant difficulties for elderly residents to perform daily errands. The Pensioners' Council had proposed a solution using line 914, but no action has been taken.

The City of Stockholm and Huddinge Municipality have extended their cooperation agreement for 2026-2027. This agreement focuses on jointly developing the regional city center, business, recreation, culture, and security in areas like Kungens kurva-Skärholmen centrum and Vårby-Vårberg. The goal is to coordinate efforts to boost growth, enhance safety, and improve offerings for residents.
