Lake Macquarie councillors have unanimously endorsed a planning proposal to increase building heights at Raffertys Resort despite fierce opposition from residents.

The planning proposal sought an increase in the maximum allowed building height at the Cams Wharf resort from 8.5 metres to 36.5 metres on part of the site, and 16 metres elsewhere. It will be forwarded to the Minister for Planning and Public Spaces for approval.
