Agenda items
The Liberals propose Stockholm City hire an "environmental controller" for the major Bromma Parkstad development project to ensure it is environmentally friendly, land remediation is thorough, and biodiversity is preserved, all for transparency and regular follow-up. The City Executive Board responded that a specific controller isn't currently needed as the project is in its early stages and the city is already forming a specialist group for sustainability.
Johan Paccamonti (M) has questioned Åsa Lindhagen (MP), the City Commissioner for Climate and Environment, regarding the sacrifice of Stockholm's green spaces for urban densification. He highlights Myrberget in Bromma as an example, where new construction plans threaten a vital green area used by Alviksskolan and for recreation. Paccamonti seeks to understand the natural values at risk and what measures the Commissioner is prepared to take to save this green space.
A Moderate politician questioned why an area near Ålstensskogen and Storskogen in Bromma was excluded from the new nature reserve, expressing concern over potential secret plans for large-scale development. The City Planning Commissioner responded that the city aims to balance nature protection with housing needs, hence the reserve is being established while land has also been allocated for approximately 50 new rental apartments (Stockholmshus) in the area. A transparent planning process will allow residents to provide input on the construction plans.
This balance sheet provides an overview of matters the Bromma District Council plans to address in 2026. The list covers a range of issues affecting residents, such as the 2027 budget, traffic changes, snow removal, new outdoor gyms and ice rinks, park maintenance, and important social and elderly care matters, including reports on serious crimes within home care services.
This item reports on decisions made by officials within the Bromma City District Administration under delegated authority. These decisions cover various referrals concerning permits for a new public sauna raft in Lake Mälaren, events such as a flea market, a festival at Björklunds Hage, and an Easter event for children, as well as installations like advertising display cases and a kayak vending machine. Decisions regarding excavation work and private sewage systems are also included.
Bromma residents have proposed several ideas to the district council, including a new "king-game" court in Blackebergsparken, safer playgrounds, and webcasting council meetings for greater transparency. Additionally, suggestions to make Bergslagsvägen near Åkeshov swimming hall two-way and to convert Bromma Airport into a large recreational area have been forwarded to relevant offices for investigation.
Stockholm's Council for Disability Issues met, expressing a desire for greater involvement in decisions affecting people with disabilities, specifically requesting earlier insight into matters such as urban accessibility and staffing in group homes. Separately, the Hässelby-Vällingby City District Administration reported a reduction in vulnerable areas and successful initiatives enabling individuals within social psychiatry and LSS to find employment or more independent housing.
The Bromma Senior Citizens' Council has emphasized that new residential areas like Bällsta Hamn and Tegelsjö must be designed to be age-friendly, prioritizing accessibility, elevators, and proximity to services. The council also advocates for free premises for senior organizations, increased support for family caregivers, more communal lunches, and a greater variety of senior activities such as a senior fair and summer events, to foster a more age-friendly city.
This matter is a list of various reports and protocols received by the Bromma City District Administration. Noted items include a request to SL to introduce a temporary swim bus line to Ängbybadet for summer 2026. The Municipal Executive Board's Pensioner Council also discussed important issues such as background checks for employment in elderly care, the city's food strategy, and how Stockholm can become a more age-friendly city.
The Bromma District Council has decided to write off unpaid fees totaling approximately SEK 1.64 million from its accounting records. These funds were receivables from various sources including preschool activities, elder care, and social services. While the write-off removes these amounts as expected income from the administration's accounting, it does not cancel the payment obligations for those who owe the money.
Bromma district administration is reorganizing the premises for the Blackeberg Employment Center on Johan Tillanders väg, which offers social services support. This involves renting fewer buildings as home care moves to new premises on Björnssonsgatan in Blackeberg and a conference operation closes down. The goal is to improve the work environment, increase quality, and save money, while maintaining all current employment opportunities and activities for residents.
Bromma City District Administration reviewed the quality of six municipal elderly care homes and day centers, including Traneberg, Brommagården, and Mälarbacken, in 2025. The overall assessment is that these services maintain good and safe quality, with most residents and guests very satisfied with their security and staff interactions. Minor areas for improvement include increasing seniors' influence over activities and providing clearer information regarding meals.
The Liberals, through Sara Svanström, propose that the City of Stockholm enhance safety at dangerous pedestrian crossings to reduce injuries and fatalities among pedestrians, especially those with disabilities. The motion calls for the city to identify the most hazardous crossings, prioritize improvements like better signage, lighting, audible signals, and raised crosswalks, and then implement these measures.
The Bromma District Council is considering a proposal to protect roughly 6.8 hectares of forest in Åkeslund as a biotope protection area, aiming to preserve its natural values and biodiversity, including ancient trees and vital habitats. While generally positive, the council seeks clarification on maintenance funding and proposes a three-meter protective buffer from building facades.
The City Planning Administration proposes a detailed development plan for Bällsta Hamn in the Ulvsunda industrial area, transforming it into a mixed-use district with approximately 1400 new homes, a primary school, three preschools, parks, and a town square. The Bromma District Administration supports the proposal but has concerns regarding preschool planning, the design and management of parks, and the need for safety and community services for residents.
The Bromma District Council has responded to a proposal for two new residential buildings with approximately 50 apartments and ground-floor retail or services on Tranebergsvägen in Ulvsunda, also making a small connecting street public. The Council is largely positive but stresses the importance of selecting the right ground-floor business, improving pedestrian paths, reviewing accessibility, and notes the demolition of two villas, one of which is culturally significant.
The City of Stockholm is updating its food strategy to encourage healthier eating, reduce the city's environmental impact, and strengthen food security. This means city operations like schools and elderly care will serve more sustainable food with a lower climate footprint and less waste. The city will also make it easier for residents and visitors to choose sustainable food by promoting urban farming, sustainable gastronomy, and improving food environments in public spaces.
The Liberals propose expanding Stockholm's "City District Boost" initiative beyond its current focus on Järva to include more vulnerable areas like Skärholmen, Hässelby-Vällingby, Bredäng, and Hagsätra, where crime and insecurity have also risen. This aims to enhance safety, improve public services, and maintain public spaces through a concrete action plan with clear goals for all involved committees and companies.
The Moderates propose that the City of Stockholm initiate negotiations with Region Stockholm and the Swedish Transport Administration, among others, to resolve the difficult traffic situation at Brommaplan. The aim is to find a long-term, comprehensive solution for this heavily congested transport hub in Västerort, which currently causes long queues and increased travel times for both motorists and public transport users.
