Presenter: Tom Brace
The March MNSFPE Meeting will feature a presentation on the High-Rise Sprinkler Retrofitting policy that is underway in Minneapolis/St. Paul. This initiative has been in progress for the last couple years and was pushed heavily by the NFSA. Tom Brace will be presenting on the status of the program as well as some takeaways that can be gleaned from the last couple years of development. This will be a great opportunity to learn about the current progress and how the city has been receptive of the retrofitting.
Tom Brace has the distinction of serving as State Fire Marshal in two states during his career, Washington state and Minnesota. It’s difficult to find someone as dedicated to supporting fire and life safety as Tom, and he currently is the Regional Manager for the NFSA.
