Tiny home as ADU in Southern Ontario - Plumbing question

I have a tiny home that I am trying to get passed with my county as an ADU. So far we got the building passed (I had to hire a private engineer to confirm it is a 4-seson dwelling), but we are stuck on the sewage line, actually just grey water because I have a composting toilet, but the county doesn't care about that distinction. I am currently here illegally, and am tied in through the basement with all necessary slopes and haven't had any issues, the primary has the capacity. The county is saying we need to tie in externally to the sewage line between the primary and the county connection, but that will be a lot more work and money when no where in their bylaws or the OBC does it say that it has to be tied in externally. It will be treated as a permanent dwelling but really it is semi-permanent. Does anyone have any experience with this? I.e. Tiny home owner or plumber.
