The board of Fastighets AB Hamburg is to approve the company's budget for 2027, with a plan extending to 2029, for their Hamburg 3 property, which comprises approximately 5,000 sqm of office space. A new tenant, Norms and Friends AB, will open a cultural event and exhibition space focused on queer history in early 2026, while efforts are underway to find new tenants for vacant premises following another tenant's departure. The property has been deemed unsuitable for school operations, and the company is discussing future use with the city's development office.
Fastighets AB Flanören will approve its financial statements and annual report for 2025. Additionally, it is proposed that the Tullhuset property on Blasieholmen be sold to the Real Estate Department for SEK 47,000,000.
Leif Söderström (SD) proposed widening Klarastrandsleden to three lanes with a reversible middle lane and adding a separate bike path, aiming to reduce queues and improve accessibility. However, the proposal was rejected because the City Executive Board and several committees argued that widening wouldn't solve traffic problems due to bottlenecks elsewhere, contradicting the city's goal to reduce car traffic and prioritize walking, cycling, and public transport, all while incurring very high costs.
Liberals propose transforming Odenplan into a more inviting "Piazza Odenplan" with more greenery, commerce, and activities, suggesting Upplandsgatan between Odenplan and Gustav Vasa Church be closed to traffic to connect the areas. The City Executive Office believes a major square transformation should wait until the Roslagsbanan extension to City is complete around 2040, but the Traffic Office plans to add more greenery as early as summer 2026.
Moderate politician Hanna Werner proposed renovating the vacant and dilapidated Vanadis Hotel for new uses, preferably for associations. The city administration responded that similar work is already underway, with plans to refurbish the old hotel premises into sports facilities for changing rooms, table tennis, and martial arts, for example. The Moderates in various committees have reserved their position, advocating for broader planning that includes external actors like gyms and cafes, while also considering cultural heritage, accessibility, and energy efficiency.
The Board of Kulturhuset Stadsteatern AB is set to consider a proposal to update the authorization for approving payments such as invoices and salaries. This routine is crucial for ensuring internal control and efficiency in the company's financial management. The proposal outlines new authorization rights based on the current staff and organizational structure.
Kulturhuset Stadsteatern AB is proposed to decide on its strategic direction and three-year plan for 2027-2029. This plan includes extending opening hours at Sergels torg, offering free entry to galleries during the summer, and developing programs in areas like Järva to highlight new voices. They also plan an international theater festival, investigate continued actor training in Husby and the start of a writing program in Järva, and relocate Materialmagasinet to new premises.
Stockholm Port AB is selling the Magasin 5 building in Frihamnen to S:t Erik Markutveckling AB. This sale, part of Stockholm City's 2026 budget, allows Stockholm Ports to concentrate more on its core business of port operations. The building, valued at approximately 400 million SEK, will reduce Stockholm Ports' debt to the city, leading to lower interest costs.
The motion proposes that the City of Stockholm support the construction of the Eastern Link, a planned car tunnel between Frihamnen and Nacka that would connect the Southern and Northern Links. This project aims to reduce queues, congestion, and emissions, improve public transport and commuting, and relieve the inner city from through traffic.
The Group Board receives notification matters concerning various referral responses from Stockholm City Hall AB and its subsidiaries. This includes the procurement of debt collection and payment exchange services, proposals for stricter control of waste management, SAO jobs for young people, a life science strategy for Stockholm-Uppsala, an action plan for an age-friendly city, a revised food strategy, and the development of Piazza Odenplan.
The City Executive Board and the Group Board of Stockholm Stadshus AB propose that the City Council approve an agreement to purchase "negative emissions" from Stockholm Exergi's new facility at Värtaverket. This means Stockholm Stadshus AB will pay up to SEK 120 million annually between 2029 and 2043 to capture and store carbon dioxide under the seabed. The purpose is to help the city achieve its climate goals of becoming climate-positive by 2030 and fossil-free by 2040, by offsetting difficult-to-eliminate emissions.
Councilor Hanna Werner (M) proposed developing Odenplan into a greener, more vibrant, and safer city square with more trees and improved bicycle parking. The City Executive Office and the Traffic Committee noted that improvement work is already underway and the area is affected by the new subway line, due in 2028, which currently limits new interventions on the square itself. However, the bike garage will be expanded with more e-bike spaces and bike boxes, an initiative already budgeted for 2026.
The Centre Party proposed the city map all avenues and old trees, create a preservation and development plan, and identify locations for new avenues, including transforming Karlbergsvägen into a green esplanade. The Executive Board responded that the city is already working on tree protection and planting, developing a new tree policy, and has hired a tree strategist, but found planting more trees on Karlbergsvägen difficult due to underground infrastructure.
The Board of Stockholm Port Company Ltd. approved a letter of intent outlining principles for vessel traffic at Värtapiren and Frihamnspiren, land use in southern Norra Djurgårdsstaden, and land transfer and electrification of Frihamnspiren. This decision prioritizes port operations at Värtapiren and urban development with housing around Frihamnspiren. The agreement also aims to reduce emissions and improve air quality through enhanced shore power supply.
The City Planning Administration has drafted a new detailed development plan for the Snöklockan 4 property in Vasastaden, near Odenplan, aiming to construct a courtyard building with approximately 6 new small rental apartments and preserve the existing culturally significant building. The plan also includes upgrading the inner courtyard for improved amenity and stormwater management. The public is invited to provide feedback on the proposal between March 10 and April 20, 2026, with a consultation meeting scheduled for March 24, 2026, at Tekniska Nämndhuset.
This is a notification regarding the minutes from the Norra Innerstaden management group meeting on March 18, 2026. The minutes included discussions on work environment and health, such as women's health in the 45-60 age group, and a smoke-damaged preschool in Norra Innerstaden. The cleaning agreement for the district and the handling of LGBTQI+ days in preschools were also discussed.
The Disability Council for Norra innerstaden and Kungsholmen reported accessibility issues at Nova preschool, where a steep staircase and an unsafe goods lift hinder disabled children. The council urged the district to fix these problems, possibly by installing a passenger lift, and to always consult them on future site selections to ensure accessibility.
This is a notification concerning the Norra innerstaden City District Administration's mail list for the period of February 5 to March 11, 2026. The list contains various matters received or initiated during this time, including citizen proposals, referrals, applications, and complaints across areas such as schools, elder care, public safety, and urban planning.
This item reports on decisions made by officials between February 5 and March 11, 2026, including individual rulings on children's right to preschool placement, extended hours, or continuing at their current preschool after moving. Decisions also covered temporary closures of the Youth Clinic and Öppna förskolan Grev Ture, along with principals allocating extra funds for preschool children needing special support and investigations into reported cases of harassment or degrading treatment.
