From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Don Marostica is a Republican member of the Colorado House of Representatives, representing House District 51, which encompasses the city of Loveland, Colorado.[1]

Marostica was born in Sterling, Colorado and attended Colorado State University on football and wrestling scholarships, graduating in 1970. He later earned a master's degree from the Unversity of Northern Colorado in 1975. Marostica also served in the United State Army and the Colorado Army National Guard, retiring at the rank of captain in 1979. After leaving the Army, Marostica taught and coached wrestling at Rocky Mountain High School in Fort Collins. Marostica currently resides in Loveland, Colorado, where he is a real estate developer. He and his wife Carol have one son and two grandchildren.[2]

Marostica was elected to the Loveland City Council in 2001, serving for three years before resigning in 2004 beacuse of professional conflicts of interest.[3] During his campaign, critics alleged that, while on the city council, he voted to award city money to his company for a development contract.[4][5] He has been considered by observers on both the left and the right to be a moderate Republican,[6][7] having supported Colorado's 2005 Referendum C.[8]

Marostica was first elected to the Colorado State House in 2006, edging out Kevan McNaught in the Republican primary and Democrat Jodi Radke in the general election.[9]

In the 2007-2008 session of the Colorado General Assembly, Marostica sits on the House Finance Committee and the House Transportation and Energy Committee. [10] Marostica has sponsored legislation that streamlines the process of approving search warrants. [11]
