Permit?
Do you need a permit to move a bathroom to an area that was previously a second kitchen? We plan on doing most of the work ourselves.

yes. you are moving walls. it's an Alteration Type 2 and fairly simple. If this is a single family, you may not want to bother, though.

Does the second kitchen already have a toilet drain?
The general rule is any changes to structural, electrical and plumbing systems have to be filed. Merely replacing the end fixtures on existing systems does not.
Basically the city wants to know about things that could destroy your house or a neighbor's property.
