How can I control a circuit breaker remotely?
Install a lock on the panel, or main shutoff. Then only give keys/combination, to those family members that pay their share.  Check with your local government before installing the lock, as it may not be legal in some jurisdictions.



Search for a circuit breaker lockout. A lockout is a device that easily attaches to a breaker, and prevents the breaker from being turned on. A combination or pad-lock can be installed, which will prevent unauthorized users from turning the breaker on.
