Agenda items
The Bromma District Council has received several citizen proposals for local improvements in early 2026, including bringing forward the construction of an athletics hall in Bällsta, creating EV charging spots at Tyska Bottens väg, installing a stop sign in Abrahamsberg, and placing dog waste bag stations in Alvik. Another proposal aims to revitalize the historic Blackebergstorg with more greenery and attractive facades to enhance well-being, and all suggestions have been forwarded to the relevant departments for further investigation.
Bromma City District Administration has reviewed a list of reports and protocols concerning important citizen matters, including plans to allocate land in Solvallastaden, Bällsta, for a new preschool to be built alongside approximately 2,000 new homes. Additionally, the Municipal Council has decided on new guidelines for out-of-hours care, such as childcare and other care during evenings, nights, and weekends, which will come into effect on August 17, 2026.
Bromma District Council reported that 27 decisions on social support, such as housing support or daily activities, could not be implemented within three months during the fourth quarter of 2025. For most cases, this was because residents did not choose providers or declined offers. However, in a few instances, the administration needed more time to find a suitable solution, such as for sign-language housing.
Bromma district's monthly financial report shows the overall budget is balanced with a positive full-year forecast of SEK 9.9 million. However, in-house home care has a SEK 13.9 million deficit, leading to measures like fewer staff per user and shorter travel times to improve efficiency and quality. The report also highlights challenges in child and youth care due to expensive placements linked to rising youth crime, and water damage affecting 15 apartments at the Mälarbacken nursing home.
Bromma District Council has reviewed this year's patient safety reports for elderly care in the district. The report details patient safety efforts at Bromma's care homes in 2025, noting improvements in areas like digital medication management and documentation, as well as successful collaboration with other stakeholders. For 2026, further initiatives are planned to develop dementia and palliative care and to strengthen person-centered, secure care for the elderly.
The Bromma City District Administration proposes that Ängby Slott at Stora Ängby allé 32-34 be granted a license to serve alcohol. This would allow the restaurant and its outdoor seating area to serve wine, strong beer, and spirits Monday-Sunday from 11:00 AM to 1:00 AM. The administration conducted a social assessment and concluded that this would not cause any disadvantages for local residents or the community.
The Bromma City District Administration has commented on Stockholm City's action plan for children's rights and influence until 2030. The plan aims to ensure all children's rights are met, counter discrimination, and give them more influence, for example, in preschools, schools, and urban planning. The administration is positive about the plan but emphasizes the need for central support to ensure its equitable implementation across all parts of the city.
The City of Stockholm is implementing a new digital map for its local public order regulations to make rules regarding public spaces clearer and more accessible. This involves adjustments, additions, and removals of several dog exercise areas, swimming areas, and alcohol-free zones across various districts, partly due to new construction projects. Most importantly, the requirement to pick up after your dog will now apply to all public places throughout Stockholm, not just the inner city as before.
A proposal has been submitted to halt plans for new construction on the green space Myrberget in Bromma, located by Tranebergsvägen. Myrberget is a cherished natural area used for recreation and is important for Alviksskolan's sports lessons. The proposal also entails the city investigating how the area can receive stronger and permanent protection against future construction.
Students from Nya Elementar in Bromma suggested improving a muddy and slippery forest path to their school with gravel or a wooden plank bridge. However, the Bromma District Council has decided not to act on this. The administration explained that it is an informal path on hilly natural terrain, making it difficult to create an accessible route, and that safety measures, including new lighting, were already implemented on another school path in the area in 2020.
A citizen proposal to create new parking spaces and an additional pedestrian crossing near Norra Ängby School, including on a meadow opposite the school, has been rejected by the Bromma District Council. The Traffic Department believes there is already sufficient parking, and that creating new parking on the green space would harm the environment and is unsuitable.
A citizen proposal has been submitted to the Bromma District Council requesting more seating at Solviksbadet, including opening closed pavilions, installing a weather-protected bench, and more park benches for winter sun enjoyment. The administration agrees that more seating is desirable and has begun discussions with the Real Estate Department to try and implement these changes, aiming to fulfill the proposal and provide residents with more seating options.
Students from Nya Elementar have proposed that more bins be placed and emptied more often at Lake Kyrksjön in Bromma, as they have noticed too few bins and littering in the nature reserve. The Bromma City District Administration will investigate whether existing bins can be moved or if new ones are needed, but primarily wants residents to use the "Tyck till" app to report overflowing bins. The administration believes too many new bins or more frequent emptying could disturb wildlife and the experience of nature in the protected area.
Citizens suggested making Brommaplan safer and cleaner through better upkeep, lighting, and more safety hosts. The Bromma City District Board responded that they are already addressing these concerns with extra cleaning, improved lighting, field assistants, security guards, and police cameras. Cleaning at Brommaplan is top-notch with daily maintenance, but major investments are being avoided due to a planned extensive redevelopment of the area.
Ninth graders in Bromma have suggested more should be done to reduce youth alcohol consumption, create more activities, and increase adult knowledge about underage drinking. Bromma district administration confirms high alcohol consumption among young people in Bromma, especially ninth graders, is an issue and outlines their preventative work. This includes informing parents via field assistants and offering various activities like youth centers, spontaneous sports areas, and summer programs to provide meaningful leisure time for young people.
The Bromma district council has amended its internal rules for decision-making authority. Case officers in the Bromma district administration can now approve extensions and payment plans for rents and fees within elderly care, disability services, and for preschools and after-school programs. The rules also clarify who decides on temporary placements of children and young people in emergency foster homes.
The Bromma District Council has decided that the Bromma District Administration will take over responsibility for daily cleaning in its own operations, such as preschools, nursing homes, and leisure centers, starting in July 2026. This move aims to improve cleaning quality, which is currently perceived as lacking with external contractors, by bringing cleaning staff in-house to ensure better control, higher quality, and more efficient use of taxpayer funds.
The City of Stockholm has reviewed a Sweco forecast regarding the need for supported housing and residential care for individuals with disabilities and mental health issues between 2026 and 2035. The forecast indicates an approximate 19% increase in demand, reaching nearly 2,400 people by 2035, particularly within the inner city. A deficit of such housing already exists, and the demand is expected to continue exceeding availability across several categories.
The Bromma District Council has approved a plan to invest approximately 110 million SEK in parks, nature reserves, and other outdoor environments within Bromma between 2026 and 2030. This initiative aims to renovate areas like Annedalsparken and Olovslundsparken, improve playgrounds such as Kratsbodaparken, enhance safety with more lighting, and promote biodiversity to meet the needs of a growing population and ensure pleasant and accessible spaces for residents.
