charging tenants for services not prevously billed before

is it enforceable and legal to have a clause in the utility addendum that says management can start billing for services not prevously billed before. We want to start a valet waste service on the property that would make the tenants have to use this service for trash removal instead of taking the trash to the dumpster. we would add $18.00 a month to their water bill and make it mandatory that they pay it.

I would imagine it be allowed, as it seems like an ammenties fee. You may want to run it by your attorney though. However, why are you listing it as a water bill fee, vs trash?

we set up their water so we were going to add to that bill. we also want to make the tenants that have already signed their lease to start paying this as well
