Hi,

If you have a written lease, the lease would have to specifically give the owner the right to impose such a charge. If it does not...then NO. If there is no lease and you are a month to month tenant, then effectively the owner is raising your rent by $35 and he must give you 30 days' written notice of the increase. That he can do.
