Bill > SF2483

This bill establishes a high-rise sprinkler system grant program administered by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency. The program provides grants of up to $2 million to owners of eligible buildings, which are defined as existing residential buildings with at least one story 75 feet or more above the lowest level of fire department vehicle access, and where at least two-thirds of the units are rented to individuals or families with low incomes. The bill also requires cities of the first or second class to report to the state fire marshal on residential buildings that meet certain criteria but do not have a sprinkler system, and the fire marshal must submit these lists to legislative committees. The bill appropriates $10 million for the grant program, with up to $4 million earmarked for a specific project.
