A top Harrisburg official plans to leave his post next month.
City Business Administrator Dan Hartman told TheBurg that he has informed city leaders of his intention to leave the position.
Hartman began in his role when Mayor Wanda Williams took her post in January 2022. He also served as part of Williams’ transition team in the months prior. His hiring was officially approved by City Council that February.
In Harrisburg, the business administrator role is a top position, responsible, along with the mayor, for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the city. His last day will be on June 7.
According to Hartman, he is leaving the city to go back to working for the state government from which he received a “fantastic offer.”
The city has already begun looking for a new business administrator, and Williams is currently fielding calls from candidates interested in the position, said Matt Maisel, communications director for the city. Hartman is aiding in the selection process as well.
“Dan is making sure whoever fills his large shoes is someone who is capable,” Maisel said.
