The City Council is proposed to adopt a detailed development plan for Kylhuset 26 and surrounding properties in the northern Slakthus area and parts of the Globen area in Johanneshov. The area will be transformed from primarily industrial use into a mixed urban district with approximately 140,000 square metres for offices, retail and services, small-scale manufacturing, and an upper secondary school, along with new and upgraded streets, squares, and parks. Buildings of cultural and historical value will be preserved and carefully renovated, while the plan also confirms the possibility of a new metro line through the area.

Agenda items
The City Council will consider a proposal to implement Phase 2a, the Cultural Quarter, in the Slakthusområdet district. The plan includes preserving and developing historically significant buildings, offices, restaurants, services, parks and public squares, as well as adapting the existing hotel and restaurant school; Arenavägen is proposed to be lowered and converted into an urban street. The project is estimated to cost SEK 391 million and generate SEK 39.5 million in project revenue, while the phase is expected to have a deficit of SEK 198 million, which the proposal says should be offset by other parts of Slakthusområdet.
The City Council is proposed to adopt a detailed plan for the Slakthusområdet, Stage 2A, in Johanneshov. This plan aims to transform the industrial area into a mixed-use district with offices, commercial services, small-scale manufacturing, and a high school, while preserving existing cultural heritage buildings and upgrading streets. The goal is to create a vibrant urban area with stronger connections to surrounding districts and enable approximately 15,000 new workplaces.
The City Council is to approve Phase 2a, "Kulturkvarteren," of the Slakthusområdet project, estimated at approximately 391 million SEK. This phase aims to create a sustainable and safe urban environment focused on culture, food, and entertainment, while preserving historical buildings. It also includes securing the existing hotel and restaurant school and adapting it for new housing, with measures like noise reduction.
The Board of Skolfastigheter i Stockholm AB (SISAB) approved the final reports for two projects: the renovation of Building A and a temporary dining hall in Building G at Nya Enskede School (phase 1), and the renovation and extension of Sundby School at Sundbyvägen 88. This means the work to improve the schools' premises has been completed.
The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör City District Board approved GSR Event AB (Slakthuset)'s application for an extended permanent liquor license, allowing the restaurant to serve alcohol to the public until 5:00 AM on Fridays and Saturdays. The board submitted its opinion to the Social Services Department's licensing unit, which handles the review of liquor licenses.
The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council approved the administration's statement regarding a referral from the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency. While the district administration supported the proposed revised regulations for compensating municipalities for packaging waste collection, they noted that compensation for collecting packaging waste in parks, which is their responsibility, was not included in the revisions.
The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council approved the administration's statement regarding a proposed detailed development plan for part of the Enskede Gård 1:1 property near Hemskogsvägen in Stureby. This plan allows for approximately 54 new homes, 40 of which will be rental apartments and 14 tenant-owner apartments, on land that is partly natural forest within Hemskogen and partly features low-scale development. Several opposition parties, including the Liberals, Centre Party, Moderates, and Sweden Democrats, dissented, citing concerns over developing natural land with high ecological value, impacts on the cultural environment, and risks associated with stormwater management and cloudbursts, especially given previous flooding in Enskedefältet.
The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration proposes a non-profit public partnership (IOP) with Rågsveds IF to enhance safety and social control in Vantör. This collaboration aims to increase adult presence at Rågsved's football pitch for a safer environment, and lower barriers for children, especially girls and 10-12 year olds, to participate in leisure activities. The partnership also seeks to boost parental involvement in association life, thereby reducing the risk of exclusion and crime among young people.
The Liberal party inquired with the Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration about how they ensure elderly home care recipients are not abused and what preventive measures are in place. The administration responded that they maintain systematic quality control, including follow-ups according to social services law, criminal record checks during recruitment, and procedures for reporting misconduct via Lex Sarah or to the police. They also stated that these quality requirements apply equally to municipal and private providers, and support is offered to those affected.
A citizen proposed a splash pool in Rågsved and a bike pump in Högdalen/Rågsved. The district administration confirmed a splash pool is already planned for southern Rågsved as part of a zoning project. The request for a bike pump has been forwarded to the traffic office, which manages the city's bike pumps, with Högdalen and Bandhagen suggested as potential locations.
A citizen proposed adding two more barbecue areas to Bandängen play park, citing heavy use of the existing one. However, the Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration believes the current two are sufficient for the park's size and visitor numbers. They argue that more barbecue spots would reduce valuable green space, potentially harm the park's ecology, and lead to increased litter.
A citizen's proposal requested the Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council to support an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and review its procurement policy to exclude actors violating human rights and international law. The District Administration assessed that the Council lacks authority for foreign policy statements regarding Gaza, but noted that human rights and ethical trade are already covered by Stockholm City's existing procurement guidelines. Therefore, the administration proposes the Council approve its statement as a response to the citizen's proposal.
The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council will consider a citizen proposal from the Nya Enskede School Parents' Association to open a youth recreation center in Triangelparken, Gamla Enskede. The proposal highlights the risk of the current center at Enskedeskolan closing and the need for a safe, evening and weekend open meeting place for youth. The district administration has begun an investigation into the future of youth recreation centers and will consider the Triangelparken proposal as a potential option for the area.
A citizen proposal addressing recurring basement flooding in Enskede gård due to heavy rainfall suggests a pilot project for cloudburst management. The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration confirmed the issue stems from street design and stormwater network capacity, forwarding the proposal to the Traffic Department and Stockholm Vatten och Avfall. The district committee is now set to approve the administration's statement responding to the proposal.
The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration is reviewing a proposed common job description for cultural coordinators across Stockholm, aiming to clarify their role and improve residents' access to culture regardless of their location. The administration suggests the district board approve the statement, which notably prioritizes children and people with disabilities in cultural initiatives.
Council members Jan Jönsson and Anne-Lie Elfvén (L) proposed that Stockholm explore implementing the "Scotland Model" to provide faster and more coordinated support for at-risk children and youth through improved collaboration between schools, social services, healthcare, and police. The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration, while acknowledging the importance of early interventions, believes similar models like the Preschool Team and SSPF (school, social services, police, and recreation) already exist. Therefore, the administration suggests prioritizing the development of these well-functioning existing collaboration models instead.
A motion proposes that the City of Stockholm investigate implementing a municipal compensation system for individuals who experienced abuse or serious neglect within social care after 1980, as a state system only covered those affected between 1920 and 1980. While Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration agrees that victims need redress, they believe this complex issue should be investigated at a national level to ensure consistent and legally sound handling across the country.
The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district council will consider a proposal from Andréa Hedin (M) to strengthen efforts against gang crime and youth recruitment. The proposal suggests that the City of Stockholm's overarching reinforcement team should gain specialized expertise in children and youth involved in crime, along with a clearer mandate to manage and guide gang-related cases. While the district administration agrees on the importance of preventing youth from entering criminality and supports the city-wide team, they recommend that the primary work with at-risk children and youth continue within the district administrations' regular operations to maintain local expertise.
The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör City District Council will appoint named officials to request assistance from the Police or Prison and Probation Service when making decisions about care or custody under the Act with Special Provisions on the Care of Young Persons (LVU). This is due to staffing changes and ensures the council can act quickly to protect young people in need of care, superseding previous appointments.
