Thank you for signing and sharing our petition. Macy Miller is a dedicated advocate for the owner builder, otherwise known as a DIYer.

She also attended and participated in all the work group meetings. she is an opponent of the Small Residential Unit taking over the tiny house standard. 

Here is an excerpt of her petition. 

The Issue
I built my tiny house in 2011 and have lived in it ever since. Tiny homes are safe, affordable, and have provided my family with a life that most can only dream of. However, the journey towards legalization is not always an easy path. One major aspect is still missing from the International Residential Code (IRC) to fully address this housing type: the wheels.

Currently, an effort initiated by the Tiny Home Industry Association (THIA) in conjunction with the International Code Council (ICC), seeks to 'fix' this gap. However, this so-called fix looks a lot to me like handing the housing segment over to industry and eliminating the DIY spirit that is central to the tiny home movement. All while not really addressing the wheels anyway. We cannot let this happen.

In 2016, significant work was accomplished to include tiny homes in the IRC via Appendix Q, paving the way for their recognition and growth. This acceptance was a monumental step forward, allowing countless individuals to embrace this lifestyle legally and affordably. Yet now there is this effort, which is being driven by a committee of builders who don't fairly represent the public, to scoop these advancements out of code and provide a path, mostly only for industry in their new standard OSMTH 1215.
