Bill Summary
For legislation relative to enhance fire protection in new one- and two-family dwellings. Public Safety and Homeland Security.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Massachusetts General Laws to require that newly constructed one- and two-family residential buildings be protected throughout with an adequate system of automatic sprinklers, with the provisions applying to buildings for which a permit is issued one year after a city or town accepts the provisions of the bill. The bill also exempts the seasonal shut-off of these automatic sprinklers from the requirements of another section of the law, with the Board of Fire Prevention Regulations determining what constitutes a seasonal shut-off.
