One week and counting.

When Homes by Avi visited my house on Friday, June 9th, Ian Mosher indicated he would get back to me within a couple of days with their "plan" for my house. Its been a week already, but I haven't heard back. I'll give them a bit more time before I start calling.

One thing that bothered me during the meeting was that Ian Mosher was quite insistant that there was no data to say that stucco thickness causes issues. His statements kind of bothered me, so I looked into it for a bit. I came across this in the meeting minutes for the Alberta Safety Codes Council from April 24, 2003. Under AHITC Submission - Proposed Code Changes:

Avi Amir provided background regarding the Final Report of the Stucco Study and reported that, on behalf of the Alberta Housing Industry Technical Council, it is believed that it is inappropriate to bring forward any proposed code changes regarding stucco thickness at this time. The Alberta Housing Industry Technical Council has prepared an action plan to address workmanship issues.

So while Ian Mosher doesn't think there is really an issue with stucco thickness, his boss, Avi Amir feels it is "innappropriate" to press for the Alberta Building Code to be changed to allow for 15mm of stucco thickness. Even though this would reduce building costs, and of course, builder profits.
