If an unpermitted cesspool is installed and correctly constructed and capped you can later seek a permit for it. Your engineer may or may not show it as "existing" but either way it can be inspected and approved by your engineer at the time of a house permit.
Life goes on, with you or without you.

Kapohocat, wouldn't that also change the type of permit/land use, from residential to commercial? And doesn't that add a whole other level to the permit process? i.e. more engineers,etc? We just went through this on a project and were not able to permit structures as ag buildings without a residence unless we made the project commercial.
Radiopeg, either way, sounds like you'll be aiming for an 'as-built' cesspool. There's usually a nominal penalty fee for that. $50 or something like that... and whatever the plumber or engineer charges.

Yes it adds layers - you have to seek fire dept approval, and the energy calcs too. It is simpler to have a residential structure permitted first but is it required? no.

We permitted, but didn't final a 320sf shed on our property (AG20), before pulling the house permit. House was built and finalled while shed was in limbo (not finalled). We did have to so the shed on the house plot plan and id the permit number, but I don't recall any other hassle. Off grid, so no HELCO.
