The municipal council in Torekov has reportedly given approval to begin planning for new rental apartments in the coastal community. According to Helsingborgs Dagblad, the proposal stems from a motion signed by the local political party Bjärepartiet. Opposition councilor Bo Wendt (BP), who spearheaded the initiative with his party, argues that more rental housing could make it possible for more people to either remain in or move to Torekov.
The background to the proposal is the high price of condominiums in the area, which makes it difficult for many local residents to purchase their own homes. The plan involves building additional housing on municipal land with the aim of enabling the village to maintain year-round residency. While the council has approved the planning phase, specific details about the number of apartments, exact locations, and construction timelines have not yet been finalized.
