[Cob] Oregon and Washington

[Amber]

Does anyone know if any county in Washington or Oregon west of the Cascades
allows cob building?  Or does anyone live in a cob house in any of these
counties?  I am looking into purchasing land so that I can eventually build
a cob house on it within the next two years.  If you did it without
permits/building to code that is cool but how did you do it and how big is
your dwelling?   I don't want to purchase land (roughly 10 acres within a 30
min. radius to a fairly populated area) in an area and then find out that it
is going to be impossible to build a cob home there.  Here is the kicker I
will probably need to have electricity (be on the grid it would be great if
I don't have to be though) but do not want a sceptic system and am hoping to
use rainwater as a source of water as well as having a grey-water system.
Anyone have any information or have a source where I could find this
information.

Thank you,

Amber
