The Agave at Gruene Rapids Relaxation, convenience and luxury converge at the Agave at Gruene Rapids. The 15-unit luxury condominium complex in the Gruene Historic District outside of New Braunfels is nestled along the Guadalupe Rapids and is within walking distance of ample shopping and dining options, and of course, Texas’ oldest dance hall, Gruene Hall. The condos are also just steps away from river outfitters, making it easy to get in a tube to float the river in the spring and summer months. This Hill Country escape is an easy commute from Houston, making it a perfect getaway destination. The Agave at Gruene Rapids condominiums feature balconies and high-end finishes throughout, including premium cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, wood and tile floors and granite countertops. The Agave at Gruene Rapids’ complex features five standard units on each of the first two floors and five two-level penthouses on the third floor. The Agave at Gruene Rapids is the first waterfront condo development in New Braunfels in more than 10 years. The condominium’s prime location along Texas’ beautiful Guadalupe River makes the units at the Agave at Gruene Rapids even more desirable. The complex, designed by Open Studio Architecture
and built by Frontera Construction, is expected to be complete in 2021. All units are located at 1228 Ervendberg Avenue, a 2.3acre riverfront lot that is just two lots away from Gruene Road, and range from $485,000 to $825,000.

The Fort Bend Chamber of Commerce is launching two new programs to help small to medium-sized businesses in offering employee benefits packages.

Fort Bend Chamber Adds Two Valuable Programs for Members
The Payentry Employee Benefit Packages may include: • Health Insurance • Legal Plans • Dental • Flexible Spending Plans • Vision • Cobra Administration • Life • Workers Compensation • Disability • Benefit Advocacy
Payentry also offers online Benefit Enrollment & Administration that streamlines the enrollment process for companies and simplifies it for employees – by eliminating paper forms and manual processes. In addition to the Employee Benefits Program, we are excited to announce that the Fort Bend Chamber of Commerce has partnered with Lincoln Financial to offer our members an exclusive 401(k) plan program. This benefit is available to both chamber members with an existing employee 401(k) plan as well as chamber members who are considering adopting an employee 401(k) plan. The benefits of working with Lincoln Financial may mean a reduction in costs in comparison to other 401(k) vendors as well as outsourcing of plan administration and liabilities.
