FWIW: If by pole house you mean the traditional sink treated poles in the ground and then girt and side, before you get your heart all set on that method of construction, you might want to do some checking with the County Building Department here to see if that will be allowed.
I can't speak to the yurt and I am pretty sure that I read here that someone had built a permitted yurt. But that is another construction method that I would want to make sure the County will not give you heartburn trying to get a permit to build.
Don't be surprised if they say no to one or both. This ain't the Mainland. What is permitted and are commonly accepted construction methods and materials many places on the Mainland will not fly here. I know from personal experience.
Cat D. may be able to advise.
