There are too many deletions and omissions of adverse findings and requirements to credibly believe them to be inadvertent.

Tamalpais Area Community Plan, Title 19, Title 22, Title 24 including  Board of Supervisor resolution 2005-1005 Condition of Approval # 18, #47 and #50 and Marin Horizon's 2010 Traffic Management Plan.

The County's participants in the above examples of documented and source referenced deletions and omissions solely benefiting Marin Horizon School should be, but most likely will not be, censured, relieved from County office or County Employment for unethically granting special favors to Marin Horizon School.
 
Seems that Marin Horizon School has its own version of Bush era Fiends in High Places only in Marin it's Marin Horizon School  aka Marin Halliburton School.
