The City Planning Administration proposes a detailed development plan for the Ängsbotten 6 property and others in Hjorthagen, Norra Djurgårdsstaden, which would create approximately 420 new homes, including care homes and apartments for people with disabilities, in 6-9 story multi-family buildings. The plan also includes new commercial spaces for retail and a new 9,000 square meter park. While generally positive, the Norra Innerstaden City District Administration emphasizes the need for a planned noise barrier and further investigation into the park's design due to noise and air pollution concerns.

Linnéa Sandström Lange (L) has resigned from her positions on the Norra Innerstaden District Council and the Social Delegation. Alexander Zejlon (L) has been elected to fill her seat until the end of 2026. The Social Delegation makes decisions on individual social services cases, including those under the Social Services Act and the Care of Young Persons Act.

The Social Welfare Committee in Stockholm has decided which city social services employees are authorized to request immediate police assistance in urgent cases, specifically for interventions under LVM, LVU, and the law on placing children in protective housing. District committees, such as Norra innerstaden, are now urged to make similar decisions to ensure social services have the necessary authority to act quickly when children or adults require acute protection or care.

The Norra Innerstaden District Council proposes that five members, in addition to the chairman, be authorized to make urgent decisions regarding the care of children and adults, and placement in sheltered housing. This applies to cases under the LVU, LVM, the Sheltered Housing Act, and the Social Services Act, allowing for quick action when a regular council meeting cannot be awaited. This authorization would be valid from April 1st to December 31st, 2026.

The Norra innerstaden district council is to approve an updated delegation policy, which means the council decides which matters officials and committees can make decisions on, rather than the council itself in each case. This aims to streamline work and shorten decision paths. The revised policy takes effect on April 1, 2026, and includes changes regarding emergency foster care decisions under the new Social Services Act and updates related to the service administration's reorganization.

The City of Stockholm is planning to meet the need for special service housing for people with disabilities until 2036, projecting an increase from 1,987 to 2,368 individuals needing such services by 2035. The greatest demand is for group homes with standard accessibility in the inner city, though there's also a need for larger, freestanding group homes, despite the challenges of building these in dense urban areas.

The City District Board of Norra innerstaden proposes extending the contract with Vardaga Silverhemmen AB, which operates Linnégården care home. This means the 86-apartment facility at Linnégatan 61, providing care for somatic and dementia conditions, will continue under the same management from February 1, 2027, to January 31, 2030. This decision is based on the home meeting requirements for safe and high-quality care, as confirmed through follow-ups and unannounced visits.

A citizen proposed a new service in Norra innerstaden for elderly living alone, allowing them to regularly confirm they are alive and receive help if they don't respond. The district administration replied that several existing services already enhance safety, such as health educators, personal alarms, and the volunteer organization Kontaktringen, and offered to help the citizen explore these options.

A citizen proposed that seniors should be allowed to bring their own wine to Vasaträffen, a senior center, and that the center should apply for a serving permit to offer alcohol at cost, after a recent notice prohibited alcohol citing the alcohol law. The city district administration found that the alcohol law requires a serving permit for premises selling non-alcoholic beverages, which Vasaträffen does, thus prohibiting all alcohol without one. The district committee approved the administration's recommendation to not allow BYOB generally, but to explore obtaining temporary serving permits for special events.

A citizen proposed lighting and winter sanding for the stairs connecting Valhallavägen and Körsbärsvägen in Roslagsparken, citing darkness and insecurity. The Norra innerstaden District Council will investigate lighting options for the stairs in 2026, as funds are allocated for Roslagsparken's refurbishment. Regarding sanding, the administration is already responsible for winter maintenance and will contact their contractor to address any shortcomings.

A new citizen proposal has been submitted to the Norra innerstaden District Council, suggesting that "Nya verkstan" change its name back to "Verkstan för alla." The council proposes that the administration now further investigate this proposal.

The District Director reported on two main points: firstly, the transition to the new Social Services Act is underway, with more non-means-tested interventions now offered in Norra innerstaden and further additions expected within a year. Secondly, several changes have occurred in preschool facilities, including evacuations of Solrosen due to smoke damage and Rio for pipe replacement, the closure of Greven and relocation of Grev Ture open preschool, and planned pipe replacement and evacuation for Stångkusken.

Kungsholmen City District Administration is planning a major reorganization of preschools to take effect August 1, 2026. This means reducing the number of preschool areas from four to three, consolidating special education work into a dedicated unit, and moving the open preschool to social services. Additionally, Kungsholmen and Södermalm will be responsible for out-of-hours childcare from August 17, 2026, leading to some preschools offering 24/7 care.

This protocol details a meeting of the Disability Issues Council for Kungsholmen and Norra innerstaden on March 16, 2026. The council discussed premises accessibility and new procedures for protocol adjustments, along with topics they wish to raise with the district councils on March 26, including housing plans for people with disabilities, accessibility in preschools and schools, and elder care staff's knowledge of disabilities.

The Kungsholmen Pensioner Council met to discuss a new daytime activity center for seniors on Garvagatan and collaboration with home care providers to help the elderly remain in their homes longer. They also expressed a desire for more visibility, requesting their own brochure, an advertisement in Mitti newspaper, and inclusion in the "Kungsholmen in brief" pamphlet.

This matter is a notification of several decisions made by the District Director of Kungsholmen during March 2026. These decisions concern, among other things, staff training, procurement of safety technology for nursing homes, staffing within elderly care, emergency housing for the homeless, delivery of promotional products, bus transport, and the purchase of play materials.

The Kungsholmen District Council is presenting its patient safety work for 2025 within healthcare in the district. The report details efforts to identify and reduce care risks, including regular meetings, staff training, collaboration with Region Stockholm, and the implementation of digital tools for medication management, all aiming to ensure safe and person-centered care for elderly residents at facilities like Alströmerhemmet and S:t Erik.

The Kungsholmen District Council is reviewing operational plans for 2026 for preschools, social services, and elder care. These plans outline goals for how these units will work with areas like child development, senior well-being, and social service interventions, aiming to ensure high quality and best meet resident needs.

Kungsholmen District Administration reports on its 2025 activities, particularly in preschools, social services, and elder care. Within social services, Kungsholmen has the highest proportion of satisfied clients in the city but is working to improve information regarding freedom of choice for residential support. They also continue to focus on supporting individuals with disabilities and mental health issues, partly through the community meeting point and new collaboration routines.

The Kungsholmen District Council considered an application for a serving permit for Ukiyo by Tezukuri at Norr Mälarstrand 32A. The administration believes there's no risk of social problems if the restaurant is allowed to serve wine, strong beer, and other fermented alcoholic beverages daily between 11:00 and 22:00. They therefore recommend approving the application, deferring the noise issue to the environmental administration.
