After leaving his hospital post, as administrator, Ward was an administrative consultant for Arcata Family Medical Group.

During this time the council successfully bonded and constructed a new water system.

In 1965, Ward was reappointed to the City Council, and was re-elected in 1966, during which time, plans for a new sewer system, and Harbor & Marina plans were initiated.

Ward pushed for the formation of the Humboldt Bay Development Committee, and carried it through to commission status by helping to facilitate joint powers agreements between Humboldt County, the City of Eureka, and the City of Arcata. Ward served as Vice Chairman of this Commission after its formation. Ward also helped create the Arcata City and Humboldt State Liaison Committee, and served as its chairman. This committee enabled HSC and Arcata to agree on freeway plans. Ward served as acting chairman of the Mayors and Supervisors Committee for Area Wide Planning and HUD Processing. During his time on the council, Ward convinced the council not to sell the Jacoby Creek Watershed.

Ward again served as Mayor of Arcata from 1966 to 1970. The years served by Ward as Mayor of Arcata total 7, the longest any one person has served as Mayor of Arcata.

In October of 1987, long after his retirement from public service, the Arcata City Council recognized Ward for his contribution of time and expertise to the Arcata March Project's inception.
