Hanna Wistrand (L) proposed developing the Högdalstopparna into an attractive area for outdoor life and recreation, and investigating public transport options. The City Executive Board's response is that much of this work is already underway, with detailed plans being developed to secure the area for nature and recreation and enable investments; however, public transport falls primarily under Region Stockholm's purview.

Agenda items
The City Executive Board has circulated a proposal for a new program for events in Stockholm to the Cemeteries Committee for consultation. This new program, which replaces the 2015 governing document, aims to strengthen the city's position as an event hub and provide guidelines for committees and companies on event-related work. The focus is on creating value, promoting sustainable development, and improving the quality of life for Stockholmers.
The Cemeteries Committee received a status report on the restoration of the Woodland Crematorium. The report detailed the project's progress according to schedule, an updated budget, and identified risks.
The Moderates are questioning why the Social Democrats have created uncertainty regarding Djurgården Hockey Club's future. Djurgården had planned to build a new arena in Tallkrogen following the demolition of Hovet, but now Hovet may remain until 2030, and a land allocation in Tallkrogen has been halted. This creates problems for Djurgården and risks a significant private investment in ice hockey.
Emelie Wassermann (SD) has questioned Sports Commissioner Jan Valeskog (S) regarding Svedmyrabadet, which has been closed since September 2024 without a decision on renovation or reopening, and with no promised replacement solutions. Wassermann demands to know when a decision will be made, what alternative bathing options are planned, especially given that Sandsborgsbadet is also slated for renovation, and why bathers are left without alternatives.
Dennis Wedin (M) is questioning Traffic Commissioner Lars Strömgren (MP) regarding the halted investigation into decking over Nynäsvägen. This busy road, used by up to 76,000 vehicles daily, creates noise and exhaust, dividing neighborhoods like Gamla Enskede and Johanneshov. Wedin argues that the previous study was stopped due to alleged financial concerns, but without any concrete economic justification for the decision.
Jonas Naddebo (Centre Party) proposes transforming Johanneshovsvägen into a green boulevard with fewer car lanes, making space for pedestrian and bicycle paths, greenery, shops, and restaurants, along with building approximately 1045 new homes, including student housing, and a new square at Lindes light rail station. The city notes that most of these proposals are already part of ongoing projects like "Årstastråket," but the Centre Party believes their motion goes further and should also encompass the stretch between Bolidenplan and Gullmarsplan.
Two politicians from the Sweden Democrats aim to halt the construction of an LSS residential home in Lammholmen, citing concerns over unsuitable ground conditions, potential damage to an old-growth forest, and highway noise. The City of Stockholm responds by emphasizing the significant need for LSS housing and assuring that all issues regarding ground, noise, and natural values will be thoroughly investigated during the democratic and transparent planning process, affirming its commitment to the project to meet the demand for adapted housing.
Svenska Bostäder's board has decided to approve the construction of new housing in the Borlången block in Årstafältet, despite reservations from the Moderate Party, Centre Party, and Christian Democrats. The latter parties believe the costs are too high to build new rental apartments in less central areas and that Svenska Bostäder should instead prioritize maintenance of existing properties, particularly in Järva.
Stockholm Hem's board has approved a status report on new housing and will investigate new construction in Norra Rågsved and Mälaräng. This means 150 new and redeveloped apartments are planned in Norra Rågsved, along with 150 apartments in Mälaräng, with estimated investigation costs of 20 million kronor each. The aim is to contribute to the city's overall goal of 140,000 new homes by 2035.
Stockholmshem has completed 125 new rental apartments in two six-story buildings in Rågsved. The project cost 335 million SEK and includes a car and bike pool, as well as stormwater treatment that supports biodiversity. Despite some logistical challenges during construction, customer satisfaction is high, and the project has exceeded its financial targets.
The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district council plans to relocate its office from Slakthusområdet to a new, more space-efficient administrative building in Rågsved, specifically Bygeln 5, with an expected completion by autumn 2028. This move will include a citizen's office on the ground floor and, despite initial increased costs, is projected to result in comparable or lower long-term rent compared to remaining in the current location, while also supporting urban development in Rågsved.
Stockholm City Council will decide on taking over responsibility for new streets, parks, quays, and a quay bath in Marievik, Liljeholmen. This is part of a large development project with approximately 960 new homes and 27,000 square meters of commercial space. Property owners covered the construction costs, but the city will now take over operations, estimated at around 21 million SEK annually for operation and maintenance; the quay bath opened in 2025, with all public areas expected to be completed by 2031.
The Sweden Democrats have motioned to investigate whether the work tunnels in thea new Östberga tunnel, built for storm water, could be used as shelters once construction is complete. The Real Estate Department states they cannot investigate this as the tunnel is not part of their portfolio, suggesting instead that the City Management Office's security department handle the matter.
Fastighets AB Grosshandlarvägen, a company owned by the City of Stockholm, manages properties in areas like Årsta Park and Norra Djurgårdsstaden to promote urban development, particularly in places such as Årstafältet. The 2025 annual report shows a positive result of 223,000 SEK, which includes planned maintenance like LED lighting replacement and asphalt paving at Vasslan 4 in Årsta Park, benefiting local residents.
Real estate company G-mästaren announces that the minutes from their board meeting on September 26, 2025, have now been adjusted and distributed.
Stockholm City's company, Fastighets AB Charkuteristen, which owns and manages properties in the Slakthusområdet to enable future housing construction, has now presented its financial statements and annual report for 2025. The company had revenues of approximately 6.2 million SEK from rents during the year and a positive net profit of 54,000 SEK after group contributions.
Stockholm Globe Arena Fastigheter (SGAF) will appoint Anders Ranefall as its representative at the annual general meetings of its subsidiaries Stockholm Entertainment District AB and Arenan 9 Norra Fastigheten AB in 2026. The representative's duties will include voting on annual reports, granting discharge to the board, and electing auditors. This is a routine administrative action to manage the company's ownership responsibilities in the subsidiaries, which were established for future land sales.
The Board of SGA Fastigheter AB has approved its follow-up of the internal control plan for 2025. This is an annual review to ensure the company's routines and operations function as intended. They identified four minor issues, including those related to subcontractors, information transfer, and crisis collaboration, but consider the controls to have been adequate overall for the year and that the identified problems are being managed.
SGA Fastigheter AB, which owns and manages arena properties like Avicii Arena and 3Arena, has reported its 2025 annual financial statements. The company had a pre-tax loss of 169.1 million kronor, which was 7.9 million kronor worse than budgeted. A positive development was the completion of the Avicii Arena modernization and its subsequent reopening, contributing to increased event revenues.
