Simply Celebrations, a party-supply store on historic Main Street, has something to celebrate.

A fire Monday afternoon was quickly extinguished by a newly installed sprinkler system.

The system was required by an ordinance approved by the City Council in November to protect historic buildings and had been installed about six months ago.

“This is a tailor-made case with why you need fire sprinklers, especially on historic Main Street,” City Manager Bruno Rumbelow said.

Twenty-nine residents were relocated to other rooms in the facility. About 12 rooms remain unoccupied Tuesday afternoon because of smoke and water damage.

Fire investigators found the fire occurred in an electrical outlet
