Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Non Disclosure, easement improvement

I own land, and have a small farm, some ag housing, 100 head of dairy goats. Parcel is under Road Maint Agreement. Seller and other Owner paved road partially to lot prior to purchase after County Service area denied. Road is defective, built by owners, no contracts between owners and contractor, Repair Committee signed Contract. Committee not inc, not HOA, not CID, just owners. Seller did not disclose any of this. Broker stated paving paid for, ask when ready, it will be done. Committee using repair funds for ''improvements'' to induce sales on certain areas, 46% of roads unpassable, unmaintained. I can't sell land, or use for intended purpose, road will not support. Recent County decision to deny adjacent lot split cites Fire App refusal. County stated roads were acceptable to zoned use A-70, GP #18, during DD before purchase. Recent documents show County mandated required const specs, ignored by owners. Access to my lot impassable certain weeks in year, never maintained except by me, CC845. Committee still demands payments. Other docs show other non disclosures by owner. No Sub Div land Final Report issued or filed, lot is now illegal, req Cert of Compliance. Water line costs $450K, told it was at lot. What to do?
