Instead of trying to get them to change (hard, may not work). Just dig a wetlands area and decorate it with tall grasses. If you get a backhoe and dig a nice hole in the corner, fill it with cheap gravel, you will have all the water go there and stay there. You are a low lot, so you can either put more gravel in or do what I suggested but I doubt you will be able to prove that the now buried pipe is the problem.
If it was my land I would dig a big hole somewhere on the property and fill it with gravel. The water will always find its way there. It looks like your front yard is the place for it. Then put really nice bog plants around it and you could add to the property value instead of having the swampy yard.
