Bromma

Council member Johan Paccamonti (M) questioned climate and environment vice mayor Åsa Lindhagen (MP) on why green spaces like Myrberget in Bromma are sacrificed for housing, arguing that the majority's housing policy diminishes Stockholm's greenery and destroys valuable nature used by schools like Alviksskolan. He sought clarification on prioritized natural values and what the vice mayor intends to do to halt development at Myrberget.

Johan Paccamonti (M) questioned City Planning Commissioner Jan Valeskog (S) about construction plans for Ålstensskogen and Storskogen in Bromma, expressing concern that land removed from a new nature reserve might be developed with housing akin to the Million Programme, and asking why the plans are secret. Valeskog (S) responded that while a nature reserve protects nature, the Exploitation Committee has simultaneously allocated land to Svenska Bostäder for approximately 50 new Stockholmshus rental apartments to diversify the area's housing, assuring an open process with opportunities for public input.

The Bromma District Council has decided to lease land at Bergslagsvägen 49 and construct a pavilion there. This is to consolidate personnel, vehicles, and equipment for in-house maintenance of the city's parks and winter roads, aiming to increase control and quality in the upkeep of Bromma's green spaces and roads. The annual rent will be approximately SEK 645,000, with establishment costs of around SEK 3.9 million.

The Municipal Executive Committee's Finance and Security Committee has approved the Education Committee's application to adapt Blackeberg School in Bromma, at a cost of 59.7 million SEK and an annual rent of 4.7 million SEK. This includes new toilets, entrance, and elevator, as well as more staff workstations. The school will be fully evacuated to Sankt Jacobi in Vällingby for two years during construction, starting August 2028.

Bromma's Pensioner Council discussed several issues affecting seniors in the district at their January 14, 2026 meeting. Key concerns included dissatisfaction with land allocations in Smedslätten, emphasizing that new construction must adhere to the area's style, and inadequate snow removal hindering home care services. The council also requested more and better-placed park benches for accessibility and awaits responses regarding a home care index and collaboration with Region Stockholm for the most frail elderly.

This balance sheet presents the matters Bromma District Council plans to discuss and decide upon during 2026. It covers a wide variety of topics affecting Bromma residents, such as financial reports, citizen proposals for new playgrounds or sports facilities like an outdoor gym in Judarskogen, and issues concerning social services and elderly care.

Bromma City District Administration reports that the head of department made three decisions through delegation. One decision concerns a report to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection following an incident within social services that could affect individuals' privacy. Additional decisions involve referrals for a small allotment cottage at Ulvsunda 1:1 in Riksby and for excavation work at Åkerhielmsgatan 16, both of which could impact the local area.

The Bromma District Council has reviewed a list of incoming reports and minutes, including Stockholm City's joint statement on Region Stockholm's subway investigation for the Bromma Airport area. The city emphasizes the need for at least two stations with multiple exits to support urban development and accessibility, along with planning that covers both long-term subway solutions and temporary public transport.

The Liberals in Bromma requested more park benches, especially to help the elderly be active outdoors, and suggested a park bench strategy. Bromma City District Administration responded that they do not have a separate strategy for park benches but manage their placement continuously as part of their work on accessibility in parks and green spaces. They encourage residents to submit suggestions for specific bench locations via the "Tyck till" (Have Your Say) service.

The Centre Party inquired about the renovation of Annedalsparken, to which the Bromma district administration replied that the work is being carried out in phases. The first phase, including plant beds and benches along Ronja Rövardotter's path, is currently underway. The entire park is expected to be upgraded during 2026-2027 to create sustainable environments with improved lawns and playgrounds, though the final cost is not yet determined and will depend on allocated funds.

A citizen proposed transforming the neglected property at Alpvägen 19-23 into a green park for recreation and biodiversity, citing current issues with litter and insecurity. The Bromma District Council supports this, noting Stockholmshem already plans a park there, though construction is not expected to begin for 2-3 years after the zoning plan is approved, anticipated early 2026 at the earliest. In the interim, discussions will take place to ensure the area is maintained.

A citizen proposed more shops like hot dog stands, greengrocers, and second-hand stores in Annedal/Mariehäll to vitalize the area due to current poor offerings. Bromma City District Administration agrees with the need but notes their primary responsibility is childcare and elder care, not business matters. However, they will raise these wishes with other stakeholders and are already working to activate the area through initiatives like "House of Opportunities," Annedal Park renovation, and dialogue concerning Mariehäll Square.

A citizen proposed building a playground for younger children next to the Eneby pumptrack, citing high visitor numbers and available space. However, the Bromma City District Administration advises against this, stating the location is unsuitable for a permanent playground due to high noise from Bromma Airport's flight path and the lack of a detailed development plan.

A 13-year-old suggested building a skatepark in Olovslund to encourage outdoor activity among youth, offering specific location ideas. Bromma City District Council responded that there are no suitable sites in Olovslund for a large new skatepark due to space and noise concerns. However, the request will be included in future long-term planning, and in 2026, the possibility of adding smaller obstacles to existing skate facilities will be investigated.

Residents proposed installing eco-friendly lighting along Äppelviken's waterfront promenade, from Alviks Strand to Smedslätten, to make the popular path safer and more usable year-round. However, the Bromma district administration rejected the proposal, citing that the promenade's wooden structure cannot support installation or maintenance machinery, and that bringing electricity to the site is too expensive and complex.

The City Council is set to vote on a revised plan for the Bromma Program in Riksby, which will reduce the number of planned homes to 1,450 and workplaces to 1,500-2,000. This is to improve profitability and avoid large investments in water and sewage systems, leading to the removal of certain development phases and a 67.4 million SEK cost for the city for existing investments.

This report summarizes the matters and minutes submitted to the City Executive Board between December 4, 2025, and January 7, 2026. It covers internal affairs such as project updates, proposals from committees, and motions from politicians. No direct decisions impacting residents are made in this report; it serves solely as an update on ongoing work.

The City proposes a new detailed development plan for Bällsta Hamn in Ulvsunda Industrial Area, aiming to transform it into a mixed urban environment. This plan includes approximately 1400 new homes, commercial spaces, offices, hotels, schools, preschools, a mobility hub, and public areas like streets, parks, squares, and a waterfront promenade with a potential commuter ferry stop. The proposal, which involves significant environmental considerations such as ground remediation, stormwater management, and noise protection, is available for public consultation from December 16, 2025, to February 16, 2026.

The Bromma District Council is delegating urgent decisions regarding the placement of children in protective housing. This means selected politicians, such as Johan Heinonen (S) and Mattias Keresztesi (M), can quickly decide where children should live for protection and if their whereabouts should be kept secret. The aim is to ensure children in Bromma needing immediate protection receive help swiftly.

The Bromma District Council has appointed five officials, including department head Fredrik Skoglund and area manager Emina Setkic, who are authorized to request assistance from the Police or Prison and Probation Service. This empowers social services to quickly act on care or custody decisions for young people under the Act on the Care of Young Persons (LVU), aimed at protecting vulnerable children and adolescents.
