To save money, the city of Willoughby, Oh (Lake Co) has discontinued free garbage collection for it's residents. I am currently renting with a signed lease and the land lord is raising the rent $10.00 a month to cover garbage collection. Can this be done without signing a new lease?

Depends on the terms of the lease, if the lease states that rent can be changed due to increases in government services, it can.

I believe Fr_Chuck means "... due to increases in what government charges for services... "

Otherwise, probably not.
