Subject: UNITED C.O. LAND OWNERS ORGANIZATION LETTER OF Nov 18 1977 to Land Owners in Cape orlando, SIGNED BY RHONDA JACZKO SECY*TREAS. Attached you will ftnd 1 etter whl ch I recet ved thl s morning from Fern Duquette, the letter is self explanatory. Fern asked me if we had author1zed such a letter, .1 advised him that our association had nothing

to do with this letter, I personally did not know anything abo~t the letter nor was it ever brought up at any of our meetings. The purpose of giving each of you a copy is to keep you informed and secondl,y to ask adv16e of -the ooard as to what actl.on, if any, should be taken. In my memo of Dec2 1977 to Boa.rd Members, I mentioned that we would not have Board meeting until the end of-Jan 1978, I st1l1 feel that way unless I hear to the contrary from the members of our board.
