Are Yurts a legal habitable structure on Big I

[jdirgo]

I know of a place in KSVE that is entirely made out of yurts and it is completely legal with the County. There are financing issues for a new buyer but that's more because the lender is clueless. I also know someone building a completely-legal home out of shipping containers (and it actually will look pretty cool when done). The County is not totally out of touch with unusual building construction. Sometimes, they do need to have the builder/owner work with them to show them its safe, etc.
