Outside Colonel Light Gardens, the same guide lists re-roofing among the work that typically needs development approval at a State Heritage Place or Area, so the council is the one to ask.

Slate Roofing around Colonel Light Gardens
The guide says there are certain specific types of work that may be undertaken without approval within the State Heritage Area of Colonel Light Gardens, and its list includes like-for-like replacement of windows, roofing, gutters or downpipes. It does not say what any roof there is made of, and it does not say that a slate roof was ever used in the area.
Like-for-like is the test the list names, so a quote that changes the material or the look is a different question for the council. Ask the council whether the property is in the area, and ask the provider whether the quote is for the same material.
