Construction is underway on Alfalfa Electric Cooperative's new headquarters, a $4.6 million building on Ohio Street in Cherokee expected to be complete in October. Here, the framed structure in the back will be a 14,000 square foot vehicle storage building, The area in front of that, for which the foundation will be poured this week, will be the 16,000 square foot operations building. This building will include a tornado-safe area that will house the server room and the wall-sized digital dispatch board, so that in the event of a natural disaster AEC will be able to keep operating.
