Preston Fant and Brant Chesney Firefighter Safety Act; enact

Summary

The act mandates that owners of commercial, industrial or multi‑unit residential buildings (three units or more) that use light‑frame truss‑type construction or engineered I‑joists must post an approved sign warning emergency responders of those materials. The state fire commissioner will set the sign’s size, color, placement and compliance timeline, and fire officials can enforce civil penalties for non‑compliance. The goal is to improve firefighter safety during emergencies.
