Fire Sprinkler Assistance Grant

Fire Sprinkler Assistance for Residential Conversions Grant (Downtown Only)

This program is intended to provide an incentive for property owners to add residential dwelling units downtown. Costs associated with the installation of a new fire sprinkler system in connection with the creation of residential upper floor dwelling unit(s) in existing buildings, or with code-required improvements or upgrades to an existing fire sprinkler system in connection with the creation of residential upper floor dwelling unit(s) in existing buildings, are eligible expenses under this grant in an amount not to exceed $4 per square foot of protected building floor area. The City will waive permit and plan review fees associated with the sprinkler installation as well as any associated tap fees.
