CHRISTINE GIESE APPOINTED TO BRAZOS RIVER AUTHORITY BOARD

  

The owner of a printed circuit board manufacturing and assembly company in Washington County and a former candidate for the Brenham School Board has been appointed to the Brazos River Authority’s Board of Directors.

Christine Giese, owner and president of BENCOR, was one of eight total appointments to the board announced on Monday by Governor Greg Abbott.

The board formulates plans deemed essential to the operation of the district and its administration in the control, storing, preservation and distribution of the storm and flood waters of the Brazos River and its tributary streams.  The authority may also discover, develop and produce groundwater in the Brazos River basin for the use of its customers.

Giese started BENCOR in 1992 in the living room of her home in Houston, and has since grown the business and relocated it to Brenham.  She earned her high school diploma from MacArthur High School.

Giese ran in the spring 2021 election for the Brenham ISD Board of Trustees.
