The story
About Plainview
Plainview grew up around its school, built in the 1920s, and around neighbors who took care of it themselves. Local volunteers added a library, a cafeteria and new desks for the 51 students, and when the school closed, the Union County school board gave the building to the Plainview Community Club. Volunteers then turned it into a community center, paying for it with pie suppers, cake walks, square dances and hot dog sales.
In 1981 the city of Luttrell proposed to annex Plainview. Residents formed an action committee and went to Union County Chancery Court, and the outcome was that Plainview incorporated as its own city on February 1, 1992. The city has since paved streets, added street lighting and a walking trail, and set up a recycling site. Plainview sits in southern Union County near Norris Lake.
