Couple of things out of the Code Book (IBC) if the County feels to enforce it, check with them first. The Ag building itself is exempt, but the Electrical or Plumbing within would require separate permit for each. A Building Permit covers all trades including structure, "trade" permits only cover trade. Raising 12 feet would greatly enhance the cost of the post and pier quote, as they probably used 4x4 posts as the bid, and at 12 feet, re engineered pier and post with larger, deeper piers and larger posts to resist seismic and wind (hurricane) loads will probably be required.
