I sent an email to the city and received a long response.

Thanks so much for this response.

There seems like a new management change a few months ago in 9/2024, then there have been always delaying on disbursement of rental deposit to us as landlords, we have been calling, email or online text messages, but so far no response which is already the 6th of the month, this month we have close to $50K rental income already submitted to Appfolio however just $6000 deposited to our account today. 

@Jason Wray Thanks for your response!

There's no way not to agree with you here & I appreciate your response.

She responds back claiming that I am unnecessarily using ger occupation in the argument and am now starting to harass her.Her response message was all over the place and extremely unprofessional (I mean, I didn't expect any better).

Henry Clark had a great response above, but you can also just reach out to a Planner in the City Planning & Zoning department if you are still unfamiliar.
