I Think I Messed Up...Adding Bedrooms...Not Pulling Permits

I think I messed up....

My attic used to be 2 units back in the day, split between the left side and the right side. There was a fire back in the 80's and it hasn't been finished since...

I decided I wanted to use this space to add bedrooms (instead of making them additional units)...I have gone ahead withmy handyman to finish it up and add the bedrooms. We are only about 35% done.

HOWEVER, I am only zoned a total of 8 bedrooms and this would increase my total to 12 bedrooms. (Adding two bedrooms on each side of the attic).

I did not go through the permit process to do this and I am now starting to regret the decision. Should I just stop all the work right now? I assumed that I could get through this and figure it out at the end.

Please help lol
