Mr. Nelson Woo President of the Northfield City Council Which sentence in the letter uses emotional appeal? What is good for Northfield is good for all of Westport County. Proposition S intends to fund public services throughout Westport County by taking 8.25% of all tax revenues away from city governments. Given the strength of Northfield’s economy, approximately $12.3 million dollars of tax revenue would be redirected toward county projects. Crime rates have dropped 28% in the last five years, and new business development has increased by 42% over the same period.
