Pima County Off Grid Living Guide
FreeEducation · Free, from Pima County Development Services
A county guide summarising the rules for living off grid or homesteading in unincorporated Pima County. Its central message is blunt and useful before you buy: off grid living is allowed, but there is nowhere in the county where zoning and building regulations do not apply, and you may not move equipment or animals onto the land until the home permit is secured.
Who qualifies Serves raw, undeveloped land. Written for people buying or holding vacant land in unincorporated Pima County. Free to read; the permits it describes are not free, and the guide says the initial home permit fee runs from roughly eight to fourteen thousand dollars.
How to apply Download the guide from the link on the Development Services page. Nothing to apply for.
