Catherine Hill Bay could look a whole lot different, with a new draft masterplan for the region now on public exhibition.
Lake Macquarie councillors voted to put the plan to the community at their meeting on Monday night.
The Catherine Hill Bay Precincts Master Plan includes a brand new community hub, with a hall, cafe, and social rooms, as well as a new surf lifesaving club and neighbourhood play space.
The surf club building at the southern end of Catherine Hill Bay and the northern oval, as well as its surrounds, have been selected as two locations host the new infrastructure.
It's hoped the plan will help the region cope with a growing population and demand for infrastructure.
