Illegal Settlements: Council Asks About District Actions

Council members Emelie Wassermann and Simon Wiklund Lyons (SD) asked the Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration about their efforts against illegal settlements, particularly at Cyklopen in Högdalen. The administration stated they follow city eviction procedures, involving police reports and contact with the Enforcement Authority, with three park engineers from the urban environment unit responsible for oversight. The estimated cost of addressing illegal settlements in the district was 1.6 million SEK between 2022-2024, though costs have decreased due to fewer settlements being discovered.
