Is it legal to charge public lighting fees for property?

Legal analysis: unreasonable. General property fees include a series of public facilities such as public lighting and should not be charged again. If the property fee is not included, it can be charged separately. Property fee refers to the fee that the property manager should pay according to the property service contract when providing property services and accepting property services. It is the owner's obligation to pay the property fee.
