Rental and leasing plus mold what should i do (see details)?

Ok here it is i have an apartment. I have been telling them about the leaks and the boken stair rail. Plus the broken garbage deiposal. The pipes and the moist ceiling. I have told them about these things from the beginning and others when it started to happen. Now there is a good possibility of black mold in the ceilings and i have pictures of it in my cabnents.
I have found a new place and am ready to move in it because with the mold starting to come i am having problems breathing at night and i have an 18 month baby that i keep plus a pregnant girlfreind. So should i just up and leave and fight this later because all of the city inspectors are taking to long to get back in contact with me and legal aid is doing the same. But i need to do something soon before its to late. and the leasing office is somewhat addressing the other issue but that was only after i complained and they lookied at it but thats it. We want to leave but the dont want to let us.

What do you mean won't let you?. The RTA states the property must be livable and reach health and safety standards. The broken staircase really worries me as it a HUGE problem if you or your friend were to hurt yourself the Lessor and the Agency is in huge amounts of hot water. It sounds as if you have seeked other avenues of advice and that was a very wise thing to do. Ultimately I dont think that they have any real abilty to hold you in a place that is causing you and your family health concerns.
