The Brownsville Chamber of Commerce has announced nominees for its board of directors for 2024-2027.
The board held a special meeting July 25 to approve the latest slate of nominees. The board’s nominating committee is tasked with filling six three-year-term vacant board seats, to serve from October 2024 to September 2027; one two-year-term vacant seat, to serve from October 2024 to September 2026; and one one-year-term vacant seat, to serve from October 2024 to September 2025.
The nominees for the three-year-term board positions are Georgette Betancourt-Medellin, district director for District 38 state Rep. Erin Gamez; Francisco Lopez, IBC Bank first vice president and commercial loan officer; Andrea Meneses, Courtyard by Marriott sale director; Constanza “Connie” Miner, chief administrative officer for the Brownsville Public Utilities Board; Jovanna Rangel, Greater Brownsville Incentives Corporation chief administrative officer; and Antonio “Tony” Rodriguez, director of cargo services and business development/Foreign Trade Zone administrator for the Brownsville Navigation District (Port of Brownsville).
The sole two-year-term nominee is Mariana Tumlinson, director of communications and community engagement for Valley Regional Medical Center. Robert Daniels, Higginbotham business insurance, is the nominee for the the chamber’s one-year term board seat.
Since no additional nominee petitions were submitted to the nominating committee by the Saturday deadline, the existing slate of nominees will be declared elected by the board at its next regular meeting on Friday.
