A yurt, in many ways, is like a tee-pee – most have the center hole to let the smoke out.
IMO you could argue it’s a tent.
The only issue might be if you put in a slab, electrical, etc… You would be crossing into “needs a permit” area.But if you put it on pavers and ran an extension cord for lights – you’d probably be legally permit free…
Of course this is all just opinion on my part.

don’t put it on pavers, instead, maybe set up a small wooden deck and then a few layers of felt insulation on the floor.
san diego has a mild climate, so, at most a small
heater would be needed.i’d wrory ore about rain fall causing water damage, hence the platform.

As for the base, I was thinking of something like this:

(See the first set of 3 photos).If I could figure out a way to put in a bathroom there, then I’d be all set.
