Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Georgia

mobilehome lots

i purchased a mobilehome on a rented lot in irwin co about 2.5 yrs ago.have payed my rent in full always and am current now.my septic is backed up and have asked the L/L to take care of it.3 weeks later he calls and says he is not going to fix or have pumped out that he could never recoupe his loss and that there is no septic tank out there just a plastic container.was never permitted or installed by the proper channels.he said that it would be better if i move my house out of there because he wasn,t going to fix it,it would never pass inspection anyway.he is not asking me to move just that it would be better than them having to put out money that i have already payed him than to fix the problem.if park is shut down and i am forced to move my mobile home can i hold them resposible for the charges insued do to their neglagence and chose not to repair the problem?do i have legal grounds to go after them for that and the 2.5 yrs i have payed 100.00 a month to be there and them knowing that this could happen with the septic system.and how would i go about this and what to ask for?dept. of health services is alredy looking in to the problen due to someone else calling them about the same problem with another lot.
