Although details of issuing the reward need further action, the Council intends for this initial reward be used for information leading to the apprehension and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the sexual assault of a female juvenile on January 2nd. Unauthorized Curb Painters It has been brought to our attention that several City of La Puente residents have received flyers indicating street addresses will be painted on the curbs in their neighborhoods. These street address painters have not been authorized by the City to paint street addresses on the curbs. These notices typically do not contain any contact information nor have they applied for a business license to operate legally in La Puente. Painting street addresses without proper City permit is illegal and persons painting the curbs must have a copy of the permit with them when painting curbs or soliciting contributions.
