I'm hoping to build on our land in Puna, but with permits, etc., taking forever, and trouble finding contractors/builders who aren't backed up for many months, I'm considering getting a yurt to live in until I can get everything lined up. Anyone have any experience with yurts? I know "camping" on your land is not legal, and that if the yurt has a "permanent" base and is over 6' in diameter, they can make you take it down. If anyone wants to contact me privately, my e-mail is moon_over_hawaii@yahoo.com. Thanks for any info.
