The Knas hemma association has applied for a temporary grant of SEK 300,000 to operate Knas-gården from July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027. Knas-gården is an leisure activity in Älvsjö for youths aged 13-18 who live or have lived in foster care, residential care homes, or other types of out-of-home placements.

The City Executive Board proposes that the City Council approve the demolition of the existing swim and sports facility in Västertorp and its replacement with a new facility on the same site.

The City Council will consider a proposal from the Hägersten-Älvsjö District Council to close a dog exercise area in Trekanten.

The proposal means that dogs will no longer be allowed to run free in the area and must be kept on a leash.

The Moderates submitted a proposal to plant at least 1000 new trees and posed five questions to the administration, to which the District Council approved the administration's response.

This agreement commissions the club to manage two official, reflective-marked trails in Älvsjöskogen nature reserve from 2026-2028 for 36,000 SEK, aiming to improve accessibility and reduce wear on sensitive areas.

The Hägersten-Älvsjö district council approved taking over winter road maintenance in parks directly from October 1, 2027.
