Pennsylvania-Game-Commission-Bryan-Burhans-Resigns Notícia

Even before the questions about the former executive director Bryan Burhans’ side business emerged, the commission had already been under scrutiny in recent years.

The executive director of the Pennsylvania Game Commission resigned earlier this week, after a lawmaker questioned him about a “wellness” side business that the agency later admitted he had been working on with other Game Commission employees.

“It’s not an active website, it’s a placeholder I have,” Burhans said, in addition that he would not answer calls about his side business during work hours. “It’s not something I market or give out to people. I never bothered to change the information because I don’t use it. All I did was set up the website.”

“It recently came to light Bryan had a business relationship with several Game Commission employees and received income through that relationship,” Foradora added. “That’s not to suggest there were any ethical violations on his part, but there were questions about the appropriateness of those business relationships, and ultimately he chose to resign.”

Todd Pride, the commissioner representing the Philadelphia region on the Game Commission board, said Burhans brought the issue to the commission during Monday’s meeting and he was not pressured by the board to resign.
