Farmington, Mo. (KFMO) - Residents in the area of Ste. Genevieve Avenue and Fleming Avenue in Farmington will experience a scheduled water outage on Wednesday, April 22, as crews complete a water main project.

According to city officials, the outage is expected to begin around 8 a.m. and last until approximately 3 p.m. The work is part of ongoing infrastructure improvements along Ste. Genevieve Avenue.
