Im buying
land in lane county, OR pretty soon, and Im planning on building my own house. I'd prefer to use natural materials, but it seems that building code is pretty strict. I read that if you are building a structure that is a max of 200 sq ft that you dont need a building permit, but it cant be a primary residence. Im wondering if this is old news, now that lane county allows tiny homes? I would prefer to build with
cob or strawbale, but as a last resort im thinking log cabin. Another thing i have been wondering, is if it is an issue to have multiple residences on one plot of land? Anyone have
experience or advice? Would be much appreciated! Thanks!
