Take your CAD drawings to Robert Smelker and ask him how much to draw them up? He's probably going to be the one to sign them, he may as well draw them? There aren't many who can or will sign plans for anyone they've not been working with before.
There are a few things that can be built without a permit, although non of them are 'dwellings'. To get a permitted 'no permit necessary' building, it needs drawings to be submitted to the County so it can be officially noted as not needing a permit.
There was a certain size and type of dwelling which could be built without stamps, I forget the exact specifications on that though, and it's been years since I've looked it up. It was on the County webpage, if I remember correctly. But, designing a building within the 'no stamp necessary' parameters would save the cost and effort of finding someone to stamp them.
Currently, the drafting projects here seem to be running around $4,500 for the smaller ones (2,000 sq ft or less) and $6,000 for the bigger ones. That's just the drawing, doesn't include the architect/engineer stamp, that'd add in an additional $2K - $3K or more. As well as the septic engineer, figure an additional $2K - $3K. The permit fee itself isn't too bad, that's per square foot and on the County website.
