The Bonduel Village Board on Thursday approved the new village president’s appointment of Luka Zischka to fill a vacant trustee seat.
Zischka teaches social studies and is an assistant girls basketball coach at Bonduel High School. He graduated from St. Norbert College in 2011.
Zischka will take the seat vacated by Sharon Wussow, who was elected president in the spring election. He will fill out the remaining year of her two-year term.
The Village Board unanimously approved Wussow’s appointment of Zischka after hearing comments from him and two others who were interested in the post.
The others were Adam Wussow and past village president Grant Staszak, who ran against Sharon Wussow in the April election.
Wussow defeated Staszak by a vote of 146-117.
Outgoing president Melvin Wendland finished third in the February primary.
