In your contract:
Section 4.7 refers to governmental fees or taxes imposed upon the landlord, not internal penalties created by management.
Section 4.7 ("Additional Rent") requires at least 30 days' advance written notice and disclosure of "the amount or approximate amount of the charge" before any new fee can be added. The August 25 email announced fines effective September 1 - only seven days later - and did not specify any dollar amount. Therefore, this notice does not satisfy Section 4.7 or A.R.S. § 33-1314(C).
Section 12 ("Community Policies or Rules") allows reasonable policy changes only if distributed to all residents with 30 days' notice and provided that such changes "do not change dollar amounts on page 1 of the Lease Contract." Since no written addendum or 30-day policy update identifying a $50 trash fine was issued, the charge remains unsupported.
As other resident shared, they might ignore your email, you need to add the sentences below to make it enforceable: Formal 10-Day Notice to Cure Landlord Noncompliance. If you do not cure this breach within 10 days after receipt, my rental agreement will terminate on [insert date].
