20510 L)ear Senator Chiles; Enclosed you will find a copy of a letter to the Office of the Governor in Tallahassee, Fla.

I am sending it to you for your information.

Ihe sit-uation here has been one of frustration for as long as eight years.

Recently, we have elected two new commissioners who are more sympathetic to our aims but they are two against three and by the time others are elected the damage will have been done.

I am also enclosing one of the bull'-'tins I send to directors of the coalition which will show you that the lack of any services is the main complaint.

Will you please find out wnether or not there are any restrictions about building so close to a nuclear power plant2 All of this development is taking place withing six miles of such a plant. It would seem prudent that the 5RC would have some such re-strictions.

You have been of help to me in other matters in the past and I am counting on you again for your 8id.'elen Shea Wells 93 El Mar Drive

Unless the state recognizes its re-sponsibility in this mattez before that date, we will have no recourse left to us.
