I just received an invoice from the coop's managment company for what they call a chargeback bill from a locksmith. About 6 months ago, I did lose my passkey to the bldg and had the bldgs's assigned locksmith deactivate the lost passkey and issue a new one. Can they do this?
Yes.
Who did you think was going to pay for it?
Yes, they can, yes, they will, and yes, they should.

Since the charge was as a result of your negligence in losing the keys, I don't see why this would even be considered an issue when you received the bill for it. There is a cost for the passkey and for the person's time who was handling it for the Coop, so it seems right that the building won't eat that cost. And if they did, they set an expensive precedent for when everyone else loses their keys.
