The City Executive Board rejected a motion by Dennis Wedin (M) to introduce clear guidelines and a simpler permit process for sponsorship and naming rights at the city's sports facilities. The majority argued that the city is already reviewing sponsorship guidelines, and that naming rights for municipal facilities are legally complex and conflict with the principle of equal treatment. The Moderates reserved their position, stating that simplified sponsorship is important for youth sports.

Agenda items
The City Executive Board rejected Jonas Naddebo's (C) motion to task the Sports and Property Committees with expanding regional cooperation on sports facilities. The majority believes current collaborations are effective and that municipalities are responsible for their own facilities. However, the Moderates, Liberals, and Centre Party dissented, arguing for more structured regional cooperation to address varying regulations and fees across municipalities, especially for niche sports or those requiring specialized venues.
A motion by Hanna Wistrand (L) proposed that the City of Stockholm investigate the need for and funding of recreational activities for children and young people with disabilities, in cooperation with other municipalities in the county. The City Executive Board rejected the motion, stating that established networks and collaborations already exist to offer and develop such activities. The Moderates and Liberals dissented, arguing that the current system is insufficient to provide children with disabilities the same opportunities for meaningful leisure time.
A Moderate Party motion proposed that Stockholm develop a strategy for "pocket parks" and plant walls to enhance urban well-being and greenery. However, the City Executive Board rejected the motion, stating that similar work is already underway, though the Moderates issued a reservation against this decision.
The City Executive Board rejected a motion from Dennis Wedin (M) regarding safer cycling, despite its aim to improve bike paths, signage, and parking in Stockholm, especially between the inner and outer city. The Moderates dissented, arguing that current cycling policy has failed to create a functional system.
The City Executive Board rejected a motion by Therese Lindström (M) proposing more mobile tree plantings with seating in paved areas of Stockholm. The motion was denied with reference to the city already working on similar initiatives, including a significant SEK 71 million tree investment in the 2026 budget. The Moderates reserved their position, advocating for the motion's approval.
The City Executive Board decided to respond to a letter from Jan Jönsson (L) concerning the conditions for culture and nightlife in Stockholm by referring to a memorandum. The majority claimed in the memorandum that the city is already doing extensive work to strengthen cultural life and improve permit processes. However, Jan Jönsson (L) reserved his position, finding the city's response complacent and not fully reflecting the industry's problems with unpredictable processes and lack of coordination, leaving several questions unanswered.
The City Executive Board decided to respond to Jonas Naddebo's (C) motion concerning access to toilets and changing rooms at the city's football pitches by referencing ongoing expansion work, meaning no new assignment was issued. The Moderates, Liberals, and Centre Party dissented, advocating for full approval of the motion due to its importance for gender equality and public health.
The board of Nynäshamns Mark AB approved the company's first quarterly report and forecast for 2026. The company, owned by Ports of Stockholm AB and Nynäshamn Municipality, manages land and facilities used by Nynäshamn Port, with all revenue derived from Ports of Stockholm AB. The company anticipates a break-even result for the full year, with no investments planned.
The Board of Ports of Stockholm was informed about two new framework agreements to secure power supply in the ports of Stockholm, Kapellskär, Nynäshamn, and Stockholm Norvik. These agreements, with Eurotech Sire System AB for Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) and Coromatic AB for backup power generators (RKV), cover installation, maintenance, and repair. Each agreement is valued at approximately two million SEK per year and has a maximum duration of eight years.
The Board of Stockholm Ports Ltd. approved the action plan for freight traffic. This means the company now has a plan with 24 measures to develop more sustainable freight traffic in Stockholm by 2030, including promoting fossil-free transport and more efficient logistics solutions.
The Board of Stockholm Norvik Port AB approved a final report for the construction of two piled jetties at Stockholm Norvik Port. The project, completed on time and costing SEK 87.6 million, involved building two jetties to facilitate the removal of approximately 18 million tons of blasted rock from the port area, enabling further port development and new logistics spaces. One board member was noted as conflicted in the matter.
The Board of Stockholm Harbour Ltd. decided to respond to the City Audit Office's 2025 annual report in line with management's statement. The audit noted the company failed to meet the City Council's profit targets due to a SEK 440 million write-down of Stockholm Norvik Port, and that internal controls were deemed partially adequate with deficiencies in work environment, authorizations, and fire safety. However, management argued that excluding the write-down, the result was better than expected, and corrective actions for the identified shortcomings were either underway or planned.
The Board of Ports of Stockholm AB approved the Q1 report and forecast for 2026 for both the parent company and the group. This means the Board has noted the financial reporting, which projects a net turnover of SEK 830 million in 2026, with 7.7 million passengers and 7.5 million tons of goods.
The Board of Stockholm Port Company Ltd. was informed about two completed procurements. Stena Recycling AB was awarded a contract worth 28-55 million SEK for waste management and cleaning services for Stockholm's ports, ships, port areas, and properties in Stockholm and Kapellskär. Additionally, framework agreements for uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and backup power generators (RKV) for all port areas, including Nynäshamn and Stockholm Norvik Port, were awarded to Eurotech Sire System AB (UPS) and Coromatic AB (RKV), both with a ceiling value of 20 million SEK each.
The Board of Kapellskärs Hamn AB decided to adopt several new governing documents from the Stockholm City Council. These include Stockholm City's Chemical Plan 2025-2031 to reduce the spread of harmful substances, a business policy and establishment strategy to facilitate entrepreneurship, and guidelines for mobility and parking in new developments to promote sustainable travel. The board also adopted a guideline for managing external referrals within the City of Stockholm to streamline the process.
The board of Kapellskärs Hamn AB approved management's statement regarding the City Audit's 2025 annual report. The audit found the company missed the municipal council's profit target due to a SEK 440 million write-down on Stockholm Norvik Port, though performance exceeded the target excluding the write-down. Additionally, deficiencies in internal controls were identified, including unclear roles for digital access and inadequate documentation for work environment and fire safety, for which the company presented action plans.
The Board of Kapellskärs Hamn AB approved interim financial statement 1 and forecast 1 for 2026. The financial statement showed slightly better than budgeted revenue, mainly due to renegotiated stevedoring agreements. Despite an uncertain economic outlook and global instability, passenger travel and cargo volumes are expected to meet the budget, even with one ferry temporarily out of service.
The Sports Committee approved a service statement in response to a letter from politicians representing the Centre Party, Liberals, and Moderates. The letter requested that the Sports Committee take action to ensure Stockholm's sports associations receive their share of the Swedish Sports Confederation's million-kronor grants for facilities.
The Sports Committee reviewed two submitted letters concerning the allocation of swimming pool times and the Stockholm BMX Arena, respectively. The Committee decided to forward both letters to the administration for further investigation.
