Jon Costas
H. Jonathon Costas (born 1957) is the mayor of Valparaiso, Indiana. He is a member of the Indiana Commission for Higher Education, an elder law attorney, and a small business owner. He was elected mayor in 2003. Costas is lead singer for the band The ConservaDellics and is an Ironman Triathlete. ==Early life== Costas is the son of the late former State Senator William P. Costas, known locally for an eponymous supermarket chain. The family moved from Gary, Indiana to Valparaiso in 1972 and Costas graduated from Valparaiso High School in 1975. He graduated with a B.A. from St. Joseph's College in Rensselaer, Indiana and a J.D. from Valparaiso University, where he later became adjunct faculty. Costas was introduced to politics through his father's campaigns, including the father's unsuccessful campaigns for the United States Congress in 1986 and 1990.〔(There will be more exciting races May 8, but few will have a more unique group / nwi.com )〕 His first major public role was in 1993 as co-chair of a group opposed to a referendum to allow a Circus Circus casino in Porter County. Even though two neighboring counties approved the casino ballot measure and Costas's group was out-spent by more than 10-to-1, the referendum was rejected by Porter County voters.〔(Special edition: Riverboat referendum. / nwi.com )〕
