    Often, not always, rural areas are more lax. But as people have mentioned previously, it is important that you go straight to the source, which would be the building department in the county you're...

    We were working with a woman who tried permitting her yurt in Cali. It had been up for quite a while as a yoga room. They got people from all over the place, lots of media attention, peacefully...

    There is more than one manufacturer for the domes, some are tinted, some are bronzed, some have gaskets, etc. Prices above sound reasonable though! Great resource!

    Wind kits are a good upgrade to get in a yurt, even if you aren't in a windy area. The posts allow for electric outlets and switches to be placed at convenient heights and wire for overhead lighting...

    dchanmer liked post by HawaiiYurts On thread : Permitting a yurt

    I suspect this is not as difficult as it seems to you right now. The first step is to narrow down some places so you can start asking questions. It seems you want someone to say 'counties a,b,c and...
