Resolution. - The Palaszczuk Government has granted extra planning protection for the iconic Gold Coast seaside theatre, and the Old Burleigh Theatre Arcade. Minister for Planning Cameron Dick today approved the City of Gold Coast’s request for a temporary local planning instrument (TLPI) over the site, to ensure its local heritage values were protected. “The Old Burleigh Theatre Arcade has significant historical and aesthetic values that we need to ensure aren’t lost with future development,” Mr Dick said. “The building has been a social hub for the Burleigh Heads community for around 90 years, after starting its life as The De-Luxe picture theatre and dance hall in 1930. “The TLPI begins in retrospect from 30 July 2019 and will be in place for up to two years while council progress the required changes to their planning scheme. “During this time, the TLPI ensures that the key historical elements of the building such as the facade cannot be demolished.
