The Observation Deck

Prompted by this post but going in its own thread here:

Prior to the past year, who was the most recent mayor of Lakewood to leave office both 1) by choice and 2) at the end of a complete term?

I'm honestly not sure. Which one? I presume a longer-term resident can tell me easily but afaik it must have been before my time.

If I understand your question correctly I think it was Dave Harbarger in the mid 1970s

mid 1990s
