Bromma

The Bromma District Council approved its first 2026 quarterly report, forwarding it to the City Executive Board, and increased annual targets for e-purchases and provided/obtained summer jobs. The council also requested 5.5 million SEK for various competence development initiatives across preschool, mental health, dementia care, and home care. The opposition dissented, raising concerns about insecurity, preschool group sizes, and elderly care quality.

The Bromma District Council reviewed the City Audit's 2025 annual report, which found the council generally managed its operations and finances well, but its internal controls were only partially adequate, mirroring previous years. The council submitted the administration's response detailing planned improvements for contract follow-up, preschool child safety, and case management in home care and LSS. A joint statement from the Liberals, Moderates, and Centre Party criticized the political majority for insufficient action on recurring deficiencies.

The City Executive Board approved the revised implementation decision for the Blackeberg Square project, with an updated budget of SEK 79 million to build approximately 120 new homes, a new healthcare center, and other commercial premises. Per a supplementary agreement, 30 of these homes, if rentals, will be senior housing for those over 55, and larger rental units will be allocated to families with children via the housing agency. The Christian Democrats issued a reservation, advocating to reject the proposal due to the project's low coverage ratio.

The board of AB Familjebostäder approved a status report on new construction, which highlighted challenges like high costs and uncertain demand. The Moderate Party, Liberals, Centre Party, and Christian Democrats stressed the importance of cautious planning and thorough analysis for new projects to avoid unaffordable rents, noting that AB Familjebostäder has no construction starts planned for 2026.

The City Executive Board rejected a motion from Johan Paccamonti (M) to halt building plans at Solviksängen in Bromma and instead include the area in the Ålstensskogen and Storskogen nature reserves. The motion was denied because the building plans align with the city's master plan for creating more rental apartments in southern Bromma, and environmental values will be further investigated during the detailed planning process. The Moderates and Liberals dissented, advocating for the protection of the green space.

The Sports Committee decided to grant 572,000 SEK in support to Mossen Hockey AB for the year 2026, aligning with the administration's proposal. One committee member did not participate due to a conflict of interest.

Councillor Johan Paccamonti (M) questioned the Climate and Environment Commissioner, Åsa Lindhagen (MP), regarding lost environmental values due to urban densification, citing Myrberget in Bromma as an example where the majority's housing policy threatens green spaces and recreational opportunities. Lindhagen responded that the Red-Green majority prioritizes protecting natural areas, establishing nature reserves, and increasing greenery while acknowledging the need for new housing, particularly on hardened ground. She noted that the Moderates had supported the land allocation for the Tranebergsvägen project, which includes 60 rental units, six of which are LSS housing.

Councillor Johan Paccamonti (M) questioned Jan Valeskog (S), Commissioner for Urban Development and Sport, about "secret" building plans at Ålstensskogen and Storskogen, expressing concern that a large green space was excluded from theigned nature reserve, potentially leading to large-scale development. Valeskog responded that the Municipal Council will decide on establishing the Ålstensskogen–Storskogen nature reserve, and the Exploitation Committee has designated land for approximately 50 Stockholmshus rental apartments in Ålsten 1:1, aiming to diversify housing options in southern Bromma.

Jonas Naddebo and Claes Nyberg (Centre Party) proposed that the city investigate and implement measures to create secondary school places in northern Bromma, arguing that the long commute for current students violates the Education Act and the Convention on the Rights of the Child. However, the City Executive Board recommends rejecting the motion, stating that the need for secondary school places is already met and the student population in Bromma is expected to decrease.

Liberal party members propose that the City of Stockholm appoint a dedicated environmental controller for the Bromma Park City development project. This role would ensure the project's environmental and climate impact is minimized, remediation is healthy and safe, and biodiversity is preserved. However, the City Executive Office, the Land and Exploitation Committee, and the Building Committee currently deem a special environmental controller unnecessary, as the project is in its early stages and similar functions are already being established.

The City Council is proposed to establish the Åkeslund Biotope Protection Area in Bromma. This roughly 6.8-hectare area, characterized by very old trees, will be protected to preserve and develop its natural values and biodiversity. Following public consultation in winter 2026, the proposal was adjusted based on feedback, notably by excluding major utility corridors from the protected area.

The City Executive Board decided to establish the Åkeslund biotope protection area in Bromma, covering approximately 6.8 hectares with very old trees. This is intended to preserve and develop natural values and biodiversity within these mature tree environments, despite reservations from the Liberal and Centre Parties.

Johan Paccamonti (M) questioned Climate and Environment Commissioner Åsa Lindhagen (MP) regarding the decrease of green spaces in Stockholm due to densification and how nature values are to be preserved, citing Myrberget in Bromma as an example where new housing is planned on green space. Lindhagen responded that the majority is working to protect nature areas through new biotop protection areas and nature reserves, while acknowledging the acute need for new housing. She emphasized building primarily on hardened ground and that construction in green areas should be restrictive and include ecological compensation.

Johan Paccamonti (M) questioned City Planning Commissioner Jan Valeskog (S) about construction plans for Ålstensskogen and Storskogen, as a green area will not be part of the new nature reserve, expressing concern about large-scale development and secrecy. Valeskog responded that the City Council will decide on establishing the 67.2-hectare Ålstensskogen–Storskogen nature reserve, and the Exploitation Committee has allocated land for approximately 50 new rental apartments (Stockholmshus) at Ålsten 1:1 to diversify housing in southern Bromma, assuring an open planning process for public input.

Jonas Naddebo and Claes Nyberg (C) proposed that the city investigate and create junior high school places in northern Bromma, arguing that the lack of nearby schools leads to long commutes and fails to meet the requirements of the Education Act and the Convention on the Rights of the Child. However, the City Executive Board suggests rejecting the motion, stating that the need for junior high school places is already met and student numbers in Bromma are expected to decrease, though permanent facilities for Adolfsbergsskolan will be designed flexibly for future needs.

Two politicians from the Sweden Democrats propose that the City of Stockholm halt construction of a planned LSS residential facility in Lammholmen, citing unsuitable ground conditions, potential damage to old-growth forest, and noise from a nearby highway. However, the City Executive Office, the Land and Exploitation Committee, the Social Services Committee, and the City Planning Committee oppose stopping the construction, arguing a significant shortage of LSS housing in Stockholm and that all mentioned issues will be thoroughly investigated during the ongoing detailed planning process.

Liberals propose that the City of Stockholm establish a dedicated environmental controller for the Bromma urban development project. This role would minimize the project's climate and environmental impact, ensure safe remediation, preserve biodiversity, and report to the City Council. The City Executive Board suggests that the motion be responded to but not approved, considering the ongoing work by a specialist group for sustainability issues in the project's early stages to be sufficient.

The Bromma District Council reviewed minutes from the Bromma Pensioners' Council meeting on April 15, 2026. Topics included accessibility at Möjligheternas hus, new nature reserves, park maintenance, feedback on the 2027 budget, and a bus stop at Bromma Hospital, as well as news of an elder curator recruitment and Mälarbacken's participation in a quality award. The council decided to file the minutes.

The Bromma District Council reviewed a list of citizen proposals, including one suggesting that individuals with LSS-supported daily activities should be able to study at Komvux at a 25% pace, as Komvux doesn't offer a lower 20% option. The Council decided to note the proposals and forward them for further processing to either the administration or relevant external offices, such as the Exploitation Office and Alvik Culture House.

The Liberals submitted two letters concerning Bromma. One requested information on the health and dental care, including vaccinations, for children placed in care, seeking details on their health status, access to proper care, and regular dental check-ups. The second demanded the swift procurement and installation of a protective barrier on the cycle path between Ulvsundaplan and Alviksplan, a safety inventory of similar paths, and a clear timeline for the barrier's placement. No decisions were made on these matters, as this was an informational item from the committee and administration.
