| Submission declined on 7 January 2025 by SafariScribe (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

In 2011, Burbank was named as "Utahn of the Year."[1][36] In 2014, he was selected as one of the "Enlightened 50,"[37] a recognition for those considered the most influential people in Utah.[10] He also served as the First Vice President of the Major Cities Chief Association, an assembly of the 75 largest policing agencies in the U.S. and Canada.[5][10]
