You also cannot legally (permitted) have a bathroom all by itself on your land, even if it is connected to the permitted septic. You must have a permitted building first. Then, you can put in a shed with a bathroom. That is what I was able to discern from the county, anyway.

Ah, I was wondering about that.

I have an existing lot and planning to build a new house in the back of it.
I know the permit for the septic is separate and comes from the Wastewater Branch of Dept of Health, 
so did they say you have to have an approved building permit before you can apply for the septic permit? or just have a set of house plans?

I know they need to know the sixe of the house and number of bathrooms, just wondering if they will issue a septic permit before you get your builing permit?

The reason I''m asking,, I plan to put in the septic first, because I think it will be hard to get into the area where the septic needs to go if I start work on the foundaation of the house, so would like to get the septic out of the way and done...
and maybe get the septic installed while waiting for the house permit to be approved..
