The Real Estate Committee is to approve an update on the renovation and development of Älvsjöbadet. The bath, originally opened in 1938, is in poor condition and will receive new buildings, stainless steel pools, and heated pools. It will be closed for the summer of 2026 due to the work, which also aims to meet the city's environmental goals and create a better working environment.

Agenda items
The Real Estate Committee is set to approve a status report for the new ice and sports hall at Hagsätra IP. This hall will provide local sports clubs and schools with facilities for training and competitions, including figure skating and ice hockey. While groundworks have begun, the planned inauguration has been postponed by one year to December 2027 to stay within budget.
The City Council will consider a proposal to build a new swimming and sports facility in Västertorp, at the Isprinsessan 5 property. This directional decision is an important step in planning the new facility, which will offer residents more opportunities for swimming and sports.
The Board of S:t Erik Markutveckling is set to review a proposal to approve the budget for 2027, with an outlook for 2028–2029, for Mässfastigheter i Stockholm AB. These properties, currently home to Stockholmsmässan, Scandic Talk, and Älvsjö Gård, are slated for transfer to the City Planning and Development Committee to make way for approximately 7,000 homes and 15,000 workplaces within the Älvsjödalen urban development area, though Stockholmsmässan will continue operations in its current location until at least 2034.
The board of St. Erik Markutveckling is to consider a proposal to approve the budget for 2027, including guidelines for 2028–2029, for its subsidiary Langobardia AB. Langobardia AB owns a property in Västberga with approximately 4,000 square meters of leasable space, where ongoing efforts are being made to rent out premises. The proposal includes investments in tenant adaptations for empty spaces and energy-saving measures.
Jonas Naddebo (Centre Party) wants the city to resume planning to transform Södertäljevägen into a green urban street connecting Södermalm with Aspudden and Midsommarkransen. He proposes decking over Södertäljevägen, Essingeleden, and the bus depot to enable up to 7,700 new homes and a new sports hall. The City Executive Board and committees believe the plan is currently paused due to economic difficulties, and the more extensive proposals, such as decking over, are too expensive and difficult to implement at present.
The City Executive Board and the Group Board of Stockholms Stadshus AB will decide on a reconstruction of part of Fruängsgården 1 in Fruängen. The service house there will be discontinued and instead converted into a care home with 97 apartments. This project, expected to be completed in 2031, will increase rental costs for the district but aims to meet the growing need for elderly care, with current service house residents offered alternative housing.
The City Council is set to approve a major rebuild of the Trehörningen 1 property in Gröndal. The existing Trekanten service house with 100 apartments will be converted into a care home with 92 apartments to address the high demand for elderly care places. Current residents will be offered priority for other service houses or housing options. The project is estimated to run from 2027 to 2030 and will increase the annual rent for the Hägersten-Älvsjö district council by approximately SEK 18.3 million in the first year, resulting in a total annual rent of SEK 32.9 million.
A motion by the Sweden Democrats proposes halting plans to build approximately 140 homes in Klubbensborgsbacken, Mälarhöjden, arguing it would destroy a unique forest ecosystem and negatively impact local nature and residents' access to green spaces. The City Executive Board, supported by other committees, advises against stopping the project, citing Stockholm's housing shortage and adherence to democratic processes. The project is currently paused while a consultation report, incorporating public feedback, awaits completion and decision by the City Planning Committee.
Two SD politicians sought to halt plans for new housing at Lågbron 1 in Långbro Park, arguing it would damage the park and that the existing building should be preserved. The City Council responded that housing plans for that site have already been stopped, but work continues on a new cafe building. The property is privately owned, not parkland, and the ongoing work aims for small-scale development and a better-suited cafe.
Liberal Party members proposed that the City of Stockholm thoroughly investigate its involvement in the former Eolshäll boys' home, where boys were abused from the 1970s to the 1990s, and explore compensation for victims, drawing inspiration from the Norwegian "rettferdsvederlag" model. However, the majority, represented by the reporting City Commissioner, believes the issue is too complex for the City to investigate alone, suggesting a new state-led inquiry into historical neglect would be more appropriate given the multiple institutions and municipalities involved and evolving responsibilities over time.
Dennis Wedin (M) has proposed that the Exploitation Committee find a permanent solution for Örnsbergs Kanotsällskap, including a location for a new clubhouse, as their previous one in Gröndal was demolished in 2018 for housing development, and their current Reimersholme contract is temporary. The city states that committees are already actively working on a solution, exploring options in both Gröndal and Reimersholme, and thus no further directives are needed. However, the opposition argues that the process has been too slow and costly, and the city must fulfill its promises.
A motion from Johan Nilsson (M) proposes Stockholm acquire land, possibly by exchange, to preserve the natural and cultural values of Långbro Park, specifically the Lågbron 1 property where a private owner plans twelve townhouses and a café. The motion suggests the city acquire the land to maintain the park's public character, potentially offering the owner an alternative nearby site for the housing. The City Executive Board proposes responding to the motion by referring to ongoing detailed development planning, as the Building Committee and the public have not yet received all viewpoints on the construction project.
Stockholm City Council is set to approve the ongoing Marievik project in Liljeholmen, which includes roughly 960 new homes, 27,000 sqm of commercial space, and new streets, parks, quays, and a quay bath. The city will assume responsibility for these public areas free of charge, though operations and maintenance are estimated at SEK 21 million annually. The quay bath opened in 2025, with the entire area projected for completion in 2031.
AB Stockholmshem has completed the renovation of 51 apartments in the Byrdingen 4 property in Gröndal, built in 1959. The renovation addressed water damage issues by replacing water and sewage pipes, renovating bathrooms, and updating electrical systems. The project cost 30.9 million SEK, significantly under budget, with residents remaining in their homes though 17 were temporarily relocated for health reasons, but a tenant survey revealed dissatisfaction with rent increases not matching the final outcome.
This item concerns the Hägersten-Älvsjö District Council receiving annual reports for 2025 from social inspectors, disability inspectors, and the Patient Advisory Committee. These reports detail the functioning of social services and disability care, and how the Patient Advisory Committee handled patient complaints within Region Stockholm.
This matter concerns the Hägersten-Älvsjö district council receiving information about responses the administration sent directly to citizens regarding a specific citizen proposal for a playground at the intersection of Vantörsvägen-Ada Nilssons gata. The council had previously tasked the administration with handling the responses to these proposals.
This matter informs the City Council about decisions made by officials through delegation. The report includes the approval of procurements for services such as craftsmanship, security technology in residences, bus transport, and staffing in elderly care, along with an opinion on a serving permit for Restaurang Hörnet Kaffebar and reports of personal data incidents to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection.
Hägersten-Älvsjö City District Administration's February 2026 monthly report projects a small surplus of SEK 0.8 million after result transfers, despite an initial deficit of SEK 2.7 million before transfers. The largest deficit is in individual and family care, primarily due to high costs for child and adult placements, while elder care shows a surplus.
The Pensioner Council in Hägersten-Älvsjö discussed new initiatives to combat loneliness in those over 65, issues with fraud against seniors, and the importance of home care staff identification. They also highlighted how poor snow removal hinders seniors' mobility and criticized proposed new developments in Fruängens centrum and Långsjö gård for reducing parking and green spaces while failing to preserve local history.
