You live in the city limits or next to a bunch of neighbors? Seems like you could build a building that isn’t huge without a permit if you aren’t endangering other people. I’m sure property tax will go up once the assessor gets that permit paperwork in his hands. I generally despise the permitting process for non-residential buildings that have zero chance of impacting other people.

permit is generally required for two reason

1) to make sure it is designed to wind code. You might not care if it blows down, but your neighbors might when it lands in their yard

2) new electrical service (meter)

Out in the boonies, it might not be an issue especially if you feed it from an existing service. Otherwise, in incorporated areas, you need a permit to construct an occupied space
