The administration proposes that the district council approve the response to the letter about public toilets in Skarpnäck. The Traffic Office plans to install an accessible toilet unit in Bagarmossen town centre in February 2027, while the administration will place seasonal portable toilets near, among other locations, splash pools and bathing areas during the summer.

Skarpnäck District Administration proposes that the committee submit the official report as its response to questions about reports of concern from preschools and child health centres (BVC). There were 55 such reports in 2024, 48 in 2025, and 26 up to 18 August 2026; the administration describes cooperation as established but wants, among other things, to strengthen family treatment, staff knowledge, and preventive support for young children and families.

A citizen proposal suggests replacing the gravel pitch near Ystadsvägen at Nytorps gärde with artificial turf, so that children and adults can play football for most of the year. Skarpnäck District Administration recommends rejecting the proposal because the gravel pitch can be used for more activities, is close to residential buildings, and artificial turf or other plastic-based alternatives may contribute to the spread of microplastics; natural grass is considered too maintenance-intensive.

The Cemetery Board’s second interim report for 2026 assessed that all three of the City Council’s overall goals and the Board’s own operational goals would be achieved during the year. The report outlined the work carried out during the period and the measures planned to meet the goals.

The Cemetery Board is proposed to support Stockholm’s new tree policy and submit its comments to the City Executive Board. The policy aims to strengthen the preservation and care of trees, including by requiring felled trees to be replaced with two new trees nearby and setting a target of at least 30 percent tree canopy cover in areas at risk of heat effects; the Board also wants to clarify certain wording and correct references.

The Culture Committee forwarded the administration’s response to the City Executive Board on the motion to give Stockholm residents a voice and visibility on SL public transport, and adopted the decision immediately. Veronica Palmgren (C) wanted the motion approved and highlighted the city’s cultural award recipients and the City Archives’ materials as ways to showcase Stockholm’s people and stories; she reserved against the committee’s main proposal.

The Culture Committee awarded Grafikens Hus SEK 500,000 for a detailed feasibility study and design work for a venue in Skärholmen, and the decision was adopted with immediate effect.

Several members also stressed the importance of long-term funding and ensuring that the activities reach both Skärholmen residents and visitors from elsewhere in the city.

The Cultural Affairs Committee approved the City Archives’ 2026 interim report and forwarded it to the City Executive Board. The report assessed that the organisation’s targets would largely be met and that the budget was balanced; the committee also reported changes to the budget framework amounting to SEK 0.8 million. More than 100 shelf metres of archival records were damaged by moisture following a water leak at Liljeholmskajen, but no information was lost, and the City Archives was working with the Property Management Department to replace the sprinkler pipes.

The Cultural Affairs Committee approved the Culture Administration’s interim report and forwarded it to the City Executive Board. The committee also requested budget adjustments totaling SEK 4.7 million for film production, Liljevalchs and work on the stage in Kungsträdgården, and reported changes in gross expenditure and revenue totaling SEK 17.5 million; the decision was made immediately. Representatives of the Liberals, the Moderates and others, and the Centre Party called for concrete measures to support cultural life and better reach among children and young people, and raised the issue of staffed library opening hours and the delayed cultural and library hub in Liljeholmen.
