Can An Apartment Complex Really Do This?

An apartment complex in Henderson NV (formerly Crystal Creek, now I believe Park Apartments), has told their tenants that when their lease was up they would now be charged for covered parking.
Residents that do not have a vehicle, including at least a few that are well into their eighties, are facing this $20 a month fee within a few months.
I have read that other places are charging as well, but only if you want to use your designated covered spot. If you wish to park in non-assigned, non-covered parking spots, or have no vehicle, there is no fee. But Park Apartments is insisting every tenant pay, car or not.
Writing this for a friend, as I know poker players are a smart bunch and hoped someone here could at least tell me whom she might contact to find out her rights.
Thank you!

You might want to cross post this in the "Las Vegas Lifestyles" tab which is found under the "2+2 Communities" tab.
Long way to go and a short time to get there.

They can write anything within reason into their contract, and a 20 blanket fee is fairly reasonable

they probably wouldn't be able to do it where I am due to rent controls but if theres no rent controls they could do it

How is this different than raising the rent?
