Number plate recognition to replace wardens

I am struggling to understand how ANPR cameras cut the grass and clean the toilets……😉. I get the problem of recruitment however I still cannot see how the sites can operate without in-person check-in or human beings to carry out site daily/weekly/annual maintenance and cleaning. I am not aware of any trials of robots for those tasks. However it is very simple in my book - if you don’t like the service on offer, go somewhere else. No one is forced to use any club site.

Saw a very positive review on Facebook of the automatic arrival at the Clachan Club Site using ANPR. Before the automatic barriers it was a bit of a faff arriving at the site because you used to have to check in at the other Club site down the road, now you don't.

I have used Camping Car-Park locations in France on many occasions, some of them being ex municipal campsites - known as Camping de mon village like the one pictured below - which also have facilities blocks.
None of them are manned and you gain entry/exit through a barrier with the grounds being maintained under contract by local landscaping contractors and cleaners.
Each site has a card reader to control the barrier and there is a credit card type machine to dispense new cards to those people who do not already have a card from a previous visit to one of the sites in the network.
You can either pre-load your card with credit or load it with funds prior to departure, on-line or via the on-site machine. All sites have CCTV supervision and a help button which is manned 24/7 so you can contact a human being to resolve any issues.
Typically the maximum price charged in high season is €12.40 + tourist tax and that includes electric, all services and free wi-fi on most sites.
I like this model and would be quite happy to see it adopted more widely by the Club.

Jim, it’s good that camc is forward looking enough to trial anpr and with the smart metering trial as well, things are looking up👍

I’ve never said never, Husky.

This applies to both this thread and the metering thread so I'll post it in both.
We have had, if memory serves, no one posting on here that has been actually affected by this current trial and the proposed metering trial, and their experiences. All we have is posters discussing the possible issues, and some saying they won't use it in any event, but no one who is actually going to be affected posting?
