He was a dedicated and loving father to Casey Head (David) of Charlotte, North Carolina, Robert “Kyle” Donovan of Greenville, South Carolina, and Luke Donovan of Columbia, South Carolina. His wife, Jill Verhagen Donovan, was his devoted partner and closest friend. His family was with him during his death following a valiant battle with cancer. He is preceded in death by his parents. He was born Jan. 17, 1956 to M. Carolyn Donovan (nee Hamilton) and Robert Francis Donovan. He was raised in Binghamton, New York by his loving mother with his two sis- ters, Deborah Donovan (Howard), Pleasant Hill, California, and Margaret Lynn “Peggy” Donovan (Frank), Raleigh, North Carolina. His aunt, Mary Margaret “Peg” Donovan, was an inspirational figure in his life and remains in Binghamton. As such, he took pride in being a fun-loving uncle to his nieces and nephews: Rae, Sierra, Eliza, Donovan, Grant, Taitum, Hannah, Josh and baby Rae. Bob moved to the Midwest after attending Northern Illinois University, class of ’78, eventually making Chicago his home. Bob credited his reputation for treating all people with respect and dignity from his mother Carolyn’s example. For the last two decades, Bob spent his career in healthcare management, ranging from senior Bob Donovan living facilities, to home health and hospice companies. Most recently, he was the President at Covenant Care in Aliso Viejo, California. Employees, patients, investors, friends and family will all miss his compassionate “being there” whenever there was a need. He supported many charities including the American Heart Association, St Jude’s Cancer Research and other local organizations. He loved playing rugby in his youth, and had a passion for the outdoors – especially upland bird hunting with his two dogs, deer hunting, fishing, running and skiing. He spent countless hours enjoying his hunting ranch in central Wisconsin. Services will be private.

The Triangle Parcel was bought with the intent to develop. However, Robinson said the County Council now wants that property to remain as open space. “Instead, we want to take the 112 acres (with development rights) we had there and develop it on the northwestern corner of this Gillmor purchase,” he said. “We are moving it up closer to where we want it: by Home Depot. We didn’t want to leave the land across the street as open space. We want the development all clustered up to the north.” About 15 acres of the new property will be earmarked as part of past commitments to Park City, The Boyer Company and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Robinson said. The remaining acreage could be used for projects to tackle affordable housing, public works or a future location for Recycle Utah, he said. Recreational uses are also attached to the property as part of the agreement with the recreation district. Ben Castro, chair of the recreation district’s administrative control board, said the property will allow the district to create trail access to various open spaces in the area, serving as a connection to Round Valley and the Rail Trail. County Council member Roger Armstrong applauded the efforts behind the transaction. He said it removes land from the market and prevents it from being entirely developed. “We are protecting wildlife corridors and cleaning up the area without the county being held responsible for it,” he said. “This is one of those rare opportunities where it worked for all the parties involved.” The $10.4 million purchase includes a reduction of about $1.5 million, which the Florence Gillmor Foundation agreed to pay to the EPA for the site’s cleanup. The county was responsible for about $8.8 million, paid out of Basin open space funds. The monies are part of a $25 million bond Basin voters approved in 2014. Of the $25 million, about $15 million were earmarked for open space purchases. Robinson said about $4 million worth of open space funds remain after the purchase. The transaction comes as the County Council is receiving pressure from Basin residents to contribute to the purchase of the 158acre Osguthorpe Farm on Old Ranch Road. The Summit Land Conservancy has secured an $8.8 million federal grant toward a conservation easement, but needs to raise an additional $3.2 million before March. “This has nothing to do with the Osguthorpe Farm,” Robinson said. “There is still plenty of money for Osguthorpe. We met with them about two weeks ago and they gave us a proposal, we gave them a counterproposal and they have not responded. This is not anti-Osguthorpe. We are still happy to engage with them anytime.” |
