In a letter to the editor of the DN Opinion on 14 march, expresses Tess Pähn concern that the green & blue majority in the city of Stockholm took a decision to allow for the remodeling.
The green & blue majority has a goal to build the 5,000 rental units per year, an ambitious goal that the forecasts for this year shows will be held. We are building for the first time in over a decade, more rental apartments than condominiums.
Even in the more affluent areas are held to a high nybyggnadstakt of the tenancy. Among other things, is currently underway plans in Bromma for the construction of 460 rental units.
the need of the maintenance of public housing estates. Maintenance and new construction a priority in the current situation of the green Party to continue to have a sustainable development of the housing stock.
letters to the editor writer warns that a mixed city with different living arrangements is important for the long-term counter economic segregation. We agree with you. This is why we have gone through the city’s 132 districts and found that only eleven of these meet the criteria that we set up.
In Hökarängen, as letters to the editor writer lives in, is 80 percent of the new housing rental units, and 85 percent of these are owned by public housing. The requirements that we set up is that at least 60 per cent of the total housing stock will consist of leaseholds and 50 percent of the hyresrätterna shall consist of the public interest even after a possible rearrangement.
a clear limit on how many apartments the city will allow for the rearrangement. With these criteria, the limit is about 5,000 apartments in total in the city if everyone who gets the opportunity also want to change.
Even if the first completed Stockholmshusen not been able to push rents in the manner we desired, this is a bet we in the majority want to continue with and develop so that rents in the future can be obtained down even during construction.
Our public housing corporation committees forecasts for Stockholmshusen also have all of the time and showed that the first projects can get difficult to reach the goals, but that the effect will, over time.
the city will also continue to make use of the state investment aid, which the government announced that it will reintroduce now to the spring, in order to further push rents. The investment aid has in other municipalities proved to work well.
We in the green Party want Stockholm to be a mixed city. It means a diversity of housing in both the rental units, condominiums, cooperatives, leaseholds, kompiskontrakt, collective building and construction and bogemenskaper.
This, and that we are positive to the careful conversions of rental properties, we stated already in 2017, in the housing program, ”City 2020”, which was adopted by the members at the annual meeting, who is the Green party’s highest decision-making body. The policy that members have determined is also the policy that we have gone to the election on.
