To those arguing that a high-rise condo and a single family residence are the same, consider this point.

If you live in a single family home and fail to possess smoke detectors and fire extinguishers, it is your family that dies.  And you made that decision.

If you live in a high-rise condo, you can take all of the precautions that i mentioned.  However without sprinklers, one of your neighbors in a building, that can house over 1,000 people on any given night, can make a decision that will kill your family and perhaps many, many other families.

That's why single family homes and condos are different.  I don't want a cheap neighbor to kill my family or put them at risk.

To condo owners.  When you consider the question, what matters is what is best for the community, not what is best for you individually.  If you don't like that, move into a single family home.
