Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

I was given proper notice for a rent increase (60 plus days- 7-27-09) by mail, in the amount of 250.00, then I received a notice of change in terms of tenancy on 8-22-09 to transfer the water bill into my name. Both notices are to be active October 01, 2009. This is a huge increase can the landlord jack my price up this much.

thank you,
