Penguin,
I agree that you do not have time to make a bunch of phone calls trying to determine who messed up when.

I would have an attorney send a letter to Mrs. Parr and your salesperson letting them know that let lot as currently configured isnot what you agreed to purchase as represented on the plat and that you therefore, do not intend to purchase it with the utility box on it.

If this is the case, the letter could state that you want the utility box moved off the property or you want a different lot.

Phone calls to people who cannot delay or stop your closing until the issue is resolved will not do you any good that I can see. And of course, any resolution agreement needs to be in writing.

If you had more time, you might be able to resolve this on your own without help from legal counsel. But you don't. An attorney from IL could right the letter for you if you don't have one in FL.
