FREEPORT The City Council on Tuesday night will look to exclude a requirement in the new International Building Code that mandates sprinkler systems in new one- and two-family homes.

But some people, such as Ald. Mike Koester, think that decision could be a mistake.

I am not in favor of excluding it, Koester said. With the new lightweight construction homes have, under fire conditions they can collapse quite rapidly.

Koester, who served as a firefighter in Freeport for 24 years, said most insurance companies will give discounts for the sprinklers and doesnt believe it would cost too much extra to include them in new homes.

I dont think adding them would make much of a difference in homebuilding, Koester said. People arent building in Freeport anyway right now. I cant think that would be much of a determining factor in someone building a house.

Illinois State Fire Marshal Larry Matkaitis proposed the plan as a statewide mandate in July before withdrawing the measure a week later citing that its become clear that any proposed state rules need additional refinement.

Freeport Fire Inspector Clyde Butler believes there is a need for sprinkler systems in homes but not right now.

Since the state fire marshal backed off I dont think there is a need at this time, Butler said. Once the state is on board, it should be something that the city looks at.

Ald. Andrew Crutchfield said he doesnt feel that increasing the cost of building new homes by requiring sprinklers will be a good thing that encourages people to build new homes in the area.

The Davenport Community School District is spending more than a quarter million dollars on a school it closed recently to save money.

The Davenport School Board approved a new fire sprinkler system for the former Lincoln School. The project will cost $288,000.

District officials said the expense is necessary in order to keep the school an asset in its neighborhood. It needs to install the sprinklers to meet fire codes so a Head Start preschool program can operate out of the building. Officials said installing the sprinkler system will also allow other preschool programs to be in the building.

Even though the school was previously an elementary school, the district did not need sprinklers for it to operate.

The school closed in May of 2012 to save an estimated $1.4 million for the district.

It was empty until the district brought in an after school program and a homeschool program.

District officials said the programs are important not only to the surrounding neighbors, but to the community as a whole.

"When you close a school, you change a neighborhood," School Board Member Patt Zamora said. "And we didn't want to do that. We wanted to keep Lincoln viable and keep it being used so it's still a hub for the neighborhood."

"One of the things we wanted to make sure of was that Lincoln is a community asset," Superintendent Dr. Arthur Tate said. "Especially a neighborhood asset. So we've been looking to see whatever goes in and uses that school is something that would go in and do exactly that - it will enhance the neighborhood."

School officials said many of the programs that will be operating out of Lincoln School will have to pay rent. The school board estimates that in the long run - the rent money will more than make up the cost of installing the sprinkler system.

District Approves Lincoln Sprinkler System

The Jackson County Highway Department is looking to install a sprinkler system in the aftermath of a Christmas Eve fire that caused extensive damage to its Black River Falls shop.

Highway Commissioner Randy Anderson asked the executive and finance committee for $40,000 in Ho-Chunk Nation funds for the new system, which will provide added protection to the building in case of another fire.

The committee approved the request, and the county board will give the final say on the proposal at its meeting later this month.

Its just that we wanted to add the sprinkler system for added protection, Anderson said.

Had we had the sprinkler system, theres a good chance it would have isolated the fire to the one truck and wouldnt have (allowed it to) spread throughout the entire building.

The Dec. 24, 2012, fire started in a plow truck and left behind 10 damaged plows and extensive damage to the Harrison Street building that totaled $1 million.

Anderson said the shop met state code requirements without a sprinkler system, and the county incurred no insurance premium increases because of the blaze, he said.

However, the highway department will experience an 7.6 percent insurance premium increase for 2014, but thats due to inflation rather than the fire incident, according to county Clerk Kyle Deno.

The county board will consider the highway departments $40,000 request at its meeting Aug. 19 at 5:30 p.m.
