The Edgewater apartments had fire sprinklers that obviously couldn't stop the fire.

I don't understand the point of this law.

Why not mandate the developers use more expensive and better construction? I guess that would interfere with the bribery going on, so we will settle for this nonsense instead.

A bill that would require most new single and two-family homes built in New Jersey to be equipped with sprinkler systems is on the fast track after the massive fire that ravaged an Edgewater apartment complex.

The state Senate's budget committee today voted 9-1 to approve the "New Home Fire Safety Act," which would require fire suppression systems ? currently mandated in larger projects like hotels, apartment buildings and dormitories ? also be incorporated into the smaller homes.

Prefabricated homes and houses that are not connected to public water systems would be exempted.
