You can't permit any structure on your property until you have a permit pulled for a residential structure. Whether it's finalled or not doesn't matter much, but a residential permit has to have been issued.
For that you need your cesspool or septic engineering (if under an acre, then septic, if over, then likely a cesspool), architect stamp, site map, house plans and catchment design. All to submit. So no payment plan.
Once you have that, then you can permit outbuildings.
Not sure what John is talking about above, but why not just call it storage or workshop and avoid any plant counting and other hoops?
If it's under 6' tall and 120sf, no permit is needed. That code will likely change soon to 12' tall and under and 120sf or less, no need for permit.
