Cheney subsequently announced his candidacy for the office of
mayor (as well as Council Members Joe Kotvas and Vincent Meloy.)
On June 19, 1974, Mr. Cheney died while in office. Lloyd
Copeland, Council Vice Chairman, was immediately sworn in as
mayor under the rules of succession. During their meeting held
on June 20, 1974, the City Council elected Lee Duncan Acting
Chairman and Catherine Barja Acting Chairman Pro-tempore
