LaFluer fills a vacancy left by the June 22 resignation of Joe Faulkner.
LaFluer previously served as a trustee with a term ending in November 2020.
Also applying were Don King, Mark Voege, Bruce Harder, Chris Strayer and Crystal Adams.
Village manager Mark Honeysett said in the general law village act, there is no prescribed method for selecting a candidate, nor specific criteria for naming a person to village the seat.
Trustee Kenda Cartagena said LaFluer served successfully in his previous term, and is familiar with all the time and work we put in setting up our own sewer plant.
Village president Gary Mathers said LaFluer is “up to speed more. He attended closed sessions we had with engineers and lawyers.

Constantine Village Council began planning Fourth of July activities, at its meeting April 19.
For the first time since 2010, Independence Day is on a Sunday. The parade, which usually begins at 11 a.m. on the 4th, is set for 2 p.m., in deference to morning church services.
Village manager Mark Honeysett said only a few other communities plan to feature a fireworks display in 2021 because of pendemic restrictions. He was told by the village insurance company it is permissible to have a both the parade and fireworks.
In other summer-activity news, St. Joe Valley Golf Club will host this year’s Chief James Bedell Memorial Fourth of July Fundraiser at 9 a.m. June 12, Honeysett said. In addition, the fire department is planning “Family Fun Day,” which includes a car show on East Water Street.
