City Finances: Surplus, Spending, and Resident Concerns

The City Executive Board has approved its activity report and financial statements for 2025, which show a financial surplus of SEK 99.5 million, primarily due to lower costs for politicians and vacant positions. Additionally, SEK 94.6 million has been re-budgeted for district and party offices' operations in 2026, and SEK 93.8 million has been approved for IT development and preparedness measures. However, the Liberals and Centre Party criticize the report for not fully reflecting real challenges in schools, social services, security, and housing construction.
