The City Executive Board proposed that the City Council establish the Trekanten Biotope Protection Area in Hägersten-Älvsjö. This 20.4-hectare area, encompassing Lake Trekanten and the forest to its south, is crucial for preserving a diverse and abundant bat population and enhancing biodiversity. Despite reservations from the Liberal and Centre Parties, the Board approved the proposal without remitting it.

Agenda items
The City Executive Board approved an implementation agreement for a new subway depot and its connections in the Älvsjö industrial area. This agreement outlines the development principles and includes the sale of the Leverantören 2 property to Region Stockholm for approximately 145 million SEK. The decision also authorizes the Exploitation and Traffic Committees to sign follow-up agreements, though these will require City Council approval if they are of significant principal importance.
The City Planning Committee has proposed a new detailed plan for a metro depot in Älvsjö. This plan, named Leverantören 2 with several others, will be reviewed by the City Council Executive Committee on May 13, 2026. Further information will be made public after that date.
Councillor Jonas Naddebo (Centre Party) proposed restarting the plan to transform Södertäljevägen into a green city street with new housing, suggesting up to 7,700 homes and decking over Essingeleden and the bus depot to reduce noise and create space. However, the City Executive Board recommends rejecting the motion, citing an existing plan program and deeming extensive decking technically difficult and prohibitively expensive given current economic conditions.
Gabriel Kroon, Mats Johnsson, and Tapani Juntunen (all SD) propose in a motion that the City Planning Committee and other relevant committees cease planning for approximately 140 residences in Klubbensborgsbacken, Mälarhöjden. The movers argue that the planned development would destroy the area's character, natural land, and ecological balance. The City Executive Board suggests responding to the motion by stating that the detailed development plan process is following its regular course and new decisions will be made after public consultation feedback is processed; however, the Centre Party and Sweden Democrats have submitted reservations to this proposal.
The Sweden Democrats proposed halting new housing construction at Lågbron 1 in Långbroparken, arguing that planned townhouses and a new cafe would harm the park and that existing structures should be preserved. However, the City Executive Board suggests rejecting the motion, noting that the detailed development plan process is democratic and transparent, and a previous decision already removed the housing component while retaining the option for a public amenity at the site.
Liberals propose that the City of Stockholm conduct its own inquiry into the city's involvement in the operations at the Eolshäll boys' home, where boys were abused from the 1970s to the 1990s. They also suggest the city investigate compensatory measures for victims, inspired by Norway's "rettferdsvederlag" model. The City Executive Board proposes dismissing the motion, stating that a new child welfare inquiry is best conducted at a state level and that it is difficult for the city to assign responsibility.
Councillor Dennis Wedin (M) proposed that the Exploitation Committee be tasked with finding a long-term, comprehensive solution for the Örnsbergs Kanotsällskap's activities and clubhouse. The club, with 1400 members, has been without a permanent clubhouse since its demolition in Gröndal in 2018 and currently operates under a demolition contract on Reimersholme. However, the City Executive Office believes that committees are already actively addressing this issue and no further directive is needed, recommending that the motion be answered by referring to ongoing work.
Jonas Naddebo (C) proposed the City Executive Board take coordinated responsibility for developing Fagersjöviken in Magelungen into an attractive area for water recreation, including investigating restoration measures and seeking external funding. However, several boards and offices, including the City Management Administration, the Sports Committee, and the Environment and Health Protection Committee, believe the city is already extensively and coordinately working to improve Magelungen's ecological and recreational status, making further assignments unnecessary.
Councillor Johan Nilsson (M) proposes that the City of Stockholm acquire or exchange property Lågbron 1 in Långbro Park to protect its natural and cultural values, as a private owner plans to build twelve townhouses and a café there, which Nilsson believes risks privatizing the park. However, the City, including the City Planning Committee, deems the construction of townhouses and a café feasible, noting that detailed planning is underway and public consultation will occur.
The City Executive Board has responded to a referral from the Swedish Energy Markets Inspectorate regarding Ellevio AB's application for a new 245 kV underground cable. This new cable will replace an existing overhead power line along Örbyleden, facilitating the city's plans to construct approximately 1,200 new homes, offices, and preschools in the area. The City of Stockholm submitted its statement by April 30, 2026.
The Education Committee approved a five-year extension of the lease agreement for Tellusborgsskolan's premises, starting January 1, 2028. This new agreement consolidates existing contracts, leading to an approximate 7.6 million SEK reduction in rental costs for the committee compared to 2026. As part of the deal, the landlord will also upgrade the school's ventilation system and carry out maintenance to improve the indoor environment without disrupting school activities.
The Moderates in Hägersten-Älvsjö questioned the park maintenance's readiness for summer waste emptying and extra cleaning, what the administration learned from last year's insecurity at Liljeholmskajen, and if the district would hire security guards. They also inquired about how field assistants work during special events and other measures taken to promote order in problematic areas over the summer.
The Hägersten-Älvsjö District Council reviewed a report on delegated decisions made by employees, rather than the council itself. These included rejecting requests for public documents, issuing a statement on a liquor license for restaurant Mackverket Marievik, and responding to a building permit referral for a power station, emphasizing the protection of a birch tree. The council decided to file the report, meaning it was noted without further action.
The Council was informed about the response to a citizen proposal regarding an equestrian facility in the Vinterviken area. The proposal, submitted on March 30, 2026, had received a decision from the committee on March 26, 2026.
The Hägersten-Älvsjö district council reviewed its March 2026 monthly report, which projected a 2.7 million SEK deficit before, but an 0.8 million SEK surplus after, result transfers. Significant deficits in individual and family care (including child and youth, and adult care) were attributed to high placement costs, offset by surpluses in elderly care and disability services. The council simply noted the report, taking no further action.
The Hägersten-Älvsjö district council noted the senior citizens' council minutes from April 15, 2026, which covered healthcare for the elderly, early palliative care planning, and several other matters. Discussions also included window cleaning procurement, the 2027 budget, concerns about sexual offenses in home care, competence expulsions, SL traffic changes, and plans for a new care home in Liseberg.
The Hägersten-Älvsjö District Council noted the input from the Disability Issues Council's April 8, 2026 meeting. Discussions included challenges in coordinating care for individuals with co-occurring conditions, developing preventive health work, and user survey results for LSS services. The council was also informed about plans for a new supported housing facility in Midsommarkransen, the relocation of a group home, and a collaboration with the Hela människan organization to combat mental ill-health among young adults.
The Hägersten-Älvsjö District Council approved the administration's service statement regarding Blomsterfonden's plans to construct a new care home in Liseberg, block Julpsalmen 4. This new building, replacing an older one from the 1960s, will feature approximately 85 apartments. The council's decision means their response to the referral has been forwarded to the City Planning Office.
The Hägersten-Älvsjö district council approved the administration's statement to the city executive board regarding proposed SL traffic changes for 2026/2027, generally welcoming increased capacity and improved night bus services. However, they rejected fewer routes through Älvsjö industrial area, requested clearer information on how frequency would be affected by line changes, and emphasized maintaining or increasing frequency on lines 133 and 707 while reinstating line 153. Robin Nilsen (L) reserved against the decision, criticizing previous public transport cuts and the red-green administration's handling of bus services.
