Update:

 

*	I was incorrect about TOA having a preference for a Ledgestone.  They are okay with the Ashlar pattern.  Kevin Sloan has expressed an interest in Ledgestone.  UDR has suggested a less
random Ashlar pattern that will create some horizontal lines as a compromise.
*	I will be bringing the seven selected samples over to the Service Center tomorrow at 10:30

Hello,

 

The following is a recap of our meetings today:

 

*	UDR indicated a preference for a Random Ashlar pattern while TOA expressed an interest in a Ledgestone pattern.  There is a slight increase in the cost of Ledgestone since more cutting
is required to produce the narrower (in height) pieces.  There may also be a slight increase in installation costs.  However, the Ledgestone pattern can provide a more contemporary look.
*	Denser stones were selected to reduce the amount of water absorption and staining.  The chart below shows the denser selections.
*	UDR would like to do mockups with approximately 30 square foot each for 4 different stone types.  This will provide a better representation of color range and also demonstrate thin
veneer installed on a curved surface.
*	As you can see from the table below we now have 7 stones that have been selected.

Please consider this information and then perhaps we should meet again to review the samples.
