The following was sent to me by a developer.  I had heard some rumors through 
the circles that this may be happening.  Has any seen or heard that this is 
truly happen later this year?

We're finding out (via a tenant's fire consultant) that the fire code changes 
in September 2014 in that they no longer allow K14 sprinkler heads in new 
construction. Also, only a certain (newer)  type of the K17 head which only two 
manufacturers have in limited supply but are production. 
We're finding that many fire jurisdictions and contractors are not yet aware 
and have not commented back to us.

Thanks,
