A lifestyle village on the shores of Lake Munmorah is about to get a major upgrade with a new community centre and swimming pool.

Bevington Shores, near Taylor Point at 186 Sunrise Ave, Halekulani was first approved in 1984 for 72 sites and over the years the 5.9ha site has progressed to 193 long-term residential sites, a manager’s home/office and community centre.

A development application now on public exhibition proposes to demolish the existing community centre and associated buildings to make way for the new centre as well as a swimming pool and deck.

The new community centre will contain a craft and library area, a games room, a multipurpose area, dining area, kitchen and male and female amenities including an accessible toilet and access ramp.

Also, there will be three additional visitor parking spaces, located to the north of the five existing visitor spaces.

The development application (4256/2022) is on exhibition for public feedback on Central Coast Council’s website until Friday, February 24.
