4.7  CONFLICTS BETWEEN GENERAL AND SPECIAL STATUTES.

 If a general provision conflicts with a special or local
 provision, they shall be construed, if possible, so that effect is
 given to both.  If the conflict between the provisions is
 irreconcilable, the special or local provision prevails as an
 exception to the general provision.
