The question presented by this case is whether RC. 5739.23(H) was, in effect, repealed by the enactment of R.C. 5739.23(I).
R.C. 5739.23(H) provides that:
'The relative need of each subdivision shall be multiplied by the relative need factor to determine the proportionate share of the subdivision in the undivided local government fund of the county, provided that the maximum proportionate share of a county shall not exceed the following maximum percentages of the total estimate of the undividual local government fund governed by the relationship of the percentage of the population of the county that resides within municipal corporations within the county to the total population of the county as reported in the reports on population in Ohio by the Department of Development as of the twentieth day of July of the year in which the tax budget is filed with the budget commission:

As we have said many times, repeals by implication are not favored and will not be found unless the provisions of the purported repealing act are so totally inconsistent and irreconcilable with...
