One of Jefferson County’s closed schools is on the open market and those living nearby are fighting to keep the property as open space or even a park.
Residents around the now-shuttered Vivian Elementary School worry with more development comes more traffic and more safety risks and say the donated property should remain as a community hub.
It comes roughly one year after parents lost an effort to keep the doors open for students at the school.
“This is a gem you don’t just bulldoze you can’t pave paradise and put up a parking lot this is perfect just leave it be,” Toby Crisp said.
