Galesburg Offers 
Fire Sprinkler 
Grant Program 
The city council of Galesburg has approved a new 
fi re sprinkler grant program for residential units in its 
downtown area. 
The Downtown Residential Fire Sprinkler Grant 
Program’s primary feature is to encourage installation 
of more fi re sprinkler systems by reimbursing 
property owners of downtown residential areas 
50 percent of the system cost, up to $20,000. This 
program aims to increase the number of sprinklered 
residential units in the downtown area, protecting 
residents and improving the overall community. 
When meeting current construction codes, this 
grant will help cover the cost of fi re alarm and 
sprinkler system installations, repairs, and updates. 
Steve Gugliotta, the Director of Community 
Development for Galesburg, expects this grant 
to benefi t the community beyond increased fi re 
protection because it will ultimately increase activity 
in the downtown area.
