No. State law always over-rules county and local jurisdictions.


I don't know if that is always the case, but in general state law will often
allow for specific regulation by the local municipality. For instance there
are state madated building codes, but the county or city may have additional
regulations.

The state does have the option to make a law that is blanket for the state.
Often though it allows for local variations such as in building codes.
