The automated system provides automated and remote monitoring, control, communication, and management of recreational vehicle parking facilities, providing guests access to electric, water and sewer services via onsite hookup pedestals. Following the guest's reservation, payment and arrival at the correct parking site which is verified by sensors monitoring the sites, the system activates one or more hookup pedestals via smart switches and smart valves on separate power circuits from the sensors. A PLC operates with a smart switch to close the switch and deliver electrical power and also operates with the smart valve's actuator to an open flow state and a, and the electrical power activates a manual switch that disengages a cover latch which provides access to the dump station inlet. When a reservation window ends or the site is vacated, the system deactivates the hookup pedestals to end access to the utility services while the sensors remain active.
