This bill amends existing laws regarding youth recreation camp cabins by exempting new residential cabins from the requirement to install automatic sprinkler systems. It introduces a new section, RSA 155-A:14, which specifies that while these cabins must comply with the state building code, they are not mandated to have electrical, mechanical, or plumbing systems. If such systems are present, they must adhere to the applicable state building code. Additionally, the bill stipulates that all new residential facilities for youth summer recreation camps are limited to two stories above grade.
Furthermore, the bill amends RSA 153:5 to include a new paragraph that mirrors the provisions outlined in RSA 155-A:14 regarding the state fire code. This ensures that the same exemptions and requirements apply to the fire safety regulations for youth recreation camp cabins. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
