According to a report by the CBC, there may be a future mould problem festering in the condos being built at the Olympic Village. The issue has been raised by the International Association of Heat and Frost Insulators and Allied Workers who claim that some construction shortcuts will lead to mould and mildew behind the drywall where pipes are not being insulated properly. The City of Vancouver is looking into the matter and assures the public that regular inspections are being held on site to ensure that all building codes are being adhered to. The developer claims this is an isolated issue.
