SAN DIEGO (KGTV) -- October is HIV/AIDS Awareness month…this year we find ourselves still in the grips of a different public health crisis.We’re highlighting the work of an organization born in the 1980’s to help LGBTQ people with HIV and AIDS.Auntie Helen’s in North Park is now meeting needs from the pandemic.10News Anchor Mary McKenzie shares the legacy of a man well-known for taking care of his community – then and now.In the late 80's Gary Cheatham founded Auntie Helen's -- in a one-car garage in North Park in 1988. He did fluff and fold laundry first for one, then for a handful of friends who were sick with AIDS.Fear and stigma at the time -- hurt the LGBT community as much as the disease. But word spread quickly -- about Gary's services -- and Auntie Helen's grew. Sadly, so did the disease... and more and more of Gary's friends and clients became sick... HIV and AIDS claimed more than 100 thousand lives in the U-S in the 1980's. Many of Gary's clients who died willed their estates to Auntie Helen's. Their belongings accumulated in Gary's garage, which was also where he did laundry -- and eventually, with help from a few high-powered friends and other activists, Gary opened Auntie Helen's thrift store in 1989.Rod Legg is now the executive director of Auntie Helen's -- which has come through some difficult times. The laundry service and the thrift store are still co-located in North Park. During the pandemic, they stretched their services to do laundry for a new group -- that needed help.“We also do COVID-19, which is our frontline medical workers. That's a tie into the past, we had to do that. We had to offer that.” explains Legg.They're also expanding the store, and their outreach. They give out free groceries to their regular clients (about 25-35 individuals) and now also to frontline workers. With COVID-19 leaving so many more people on hard times, they started delivering groceries - no questions asked, no referral needed. Rod found the food, and the volunteers delivered it. At one point, to more than 300 people.“This is everybody's HIV in a sense. Do you know what I mean? We don't know where we're at. We're all wondering what's going to happen the next day, but most importantly is neighbor to neighbor we need to make sure we're taking care of each other.” says, Rod Legg.Auntie Helen's staffs a "warm" line instead of a hot line with volunteers -- taking calls from people struggling with mental health issues. They offer yoga, meditation -- virtually for now -- and provide clients with addiction support and help with job hunting. All in keeping with the legacy of Gary Cheatham...Rod Legg remarked, “This man was way before his time. You know? And can you imagine the faces of the people that got the hugs, and the clothes?”A hero for the community, then and now...That's what we all should be doing. And we should all be our heroes, for each other. 2909

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - Port of San Diego Commissioners saw the latest draft of the new Port Master Plan this week while allowing people who live in the area one more chance to weigh in on the region's future.The Port Master Plan is a 51-page document that will guide development along the San Diego Bay. This is the Plan's first update since it was created in 1981."For the first time, we include elements, or chapters of goals, objectives, and policies that will guide issues that apply Bay-wide, not just specific to individual locations," says Lesley Nishihira, the Port's Planning Director.The new Master Plan calls for more hotel development, with nearly 4500 new rooms on Harbor Island and the Embarcadero. But it prohibits new hotel rooms on Shelter Island, the Coronado Bayfront, and the Silver Strand.RELATED: Planned park could impact USS Midway MuseumIt also includes provisions for height restrictions on new buildings, a plan to turn the parking lot at Navy Pier into park space, and commercial industry use guidelines along the Bay.Port employees have been working on it for nearly eight years, with the Port Commissioners holding 40 meetings about the Plan, as well as dozens of public forums.But critics say it is too focused on tourism and industry and does not do enough to help out San Diego residents who live along the Bay, particularly in low-income areas south of the Convention Center."The status quo isn't good enough for the community," says former City Councilman David Alvarez, who has been vocal in his criticism of the new Plan. "We've seen the pollution. We've seen the impacts; the parking problems, the lack of access to the water (for low-income residents)."Alvarez brought these issues up at a public comment session on Monday. He says, to his surprise, the Commissioners voted unanimously to make sure more Social and Environmental Equity issues go into the Plan.Port employees say they will include specific policies in the final draft to ensure all San Diegans can benefit from the Bay."We'll take a closer look at those policies and see where we can include more information to make sure we're truly addressing the issues as needed," says Nishihira.Port employees are now finishing the Final Draft of the new Master Plan. It should be completed by the summer of 2021. After that, it needs a full environmental review and then approval from the California Coastal Commission.Nishihira says the entire process should be complete by the start of 2023.To see the latest version of the Port Master Plan, click here. 2553

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - One of San Diego's hottest restaurant groups is suing the City of San Diego, in part, for negligence. The owner of Little Italy’s The Crack Shack and Juniper & Ivy gave 10 News an exclusive interview regarding allegations that the city failed to remedy issues which led to last summer’s massive water main break that flooded much of the area. “It seems the city is using a ‘whack-a-mole’ approach,” says restaurant owner Michael Rosen when asked about the city’s way of addressing underground piping issues.  Rosen’s Juniper Hospitality restaurant group in suing the city for negligence, negligent interference with economic advantage and prospective economic advantage, and inverse condemnation. According to the recently filed lawsuit, before the July water main break, “…the defendants were working within the area and had left temporary water pipes above ground, which were being run over by hundreds of cars a day, for approximately six months with no further attempt to repair or remove…The Defendants issued a ‘quick fix’ to the problem in lieu of fixing the unstable water main which resulted in the massive rupture that occurred.” “This is what happens when you ignore a problem for so many months,” he tells 10 News. Rosen claims more than 400 reservations had to be canceled. “We likely lost 30 to 40 thousand dollars in revenue for the day and it was a very busy day,” he adds. “It’s just mind-boggling,” says Adam Babin of Power Keg Athletics. Babin’s CrossFit studio was destroyed beyond repair. He believes he lost more than 0,000 in property, alone. “Hands down, this was the toughest and most mentally and emotionally [difficult] situations I've ever had to deal with in my life,” he adds.  “It definitely hurt my business for sure,” says Rebecca Hyde-Edwards of Hyde Edwards Salon and Spa. Hyde-Edwards, Babin and Rosen say they have yet to receive adequate responses from the city after submitting their damage claims.  "This is a destination area and [the city] should look out for all the businesses that make it what it is,” adds Hyde-Edwards. A City of San Diego spokesperson tells 10News the city has received 28 claims and paid out .5 million to date. Only 3 of the 28 claims have been resolved. It reports that claimants have not submitted all of the supporting documentation, so not all claims have been paid. Timeframes for payments are reportedly done on a case by case basis and vary depending upon when all the supporting documentation is received and evaluated by the City.  The city’s aging water system infrastructure has wreaked havoc. More than 0 million have been spent in the last 5 years to repair and replace more than 100 miles of piping. Rosen tells 10News he’d be happy to drop his lawsuit if the city had a comprehensive plan to fix Little Italy’s crumbling piping. “It’s our expectation and justifiable fear that we'll have to close many days in the future unless this is really addressed,” he says of his restaurants.  A city spokesperson reports the broken section of pipe in Little Italy was immediately replaced after the flooding. The city’s 0.95 mile pipeline replacement project in that area was reportedly completed last summer. A spokesperson for the city says there are no additional plans for pipeline repairs or replacement for that immediate area.  The city will not respond to the lawsuit. It reports it doesn't comment on pending litigation.  Visit Group Job 954 for a closer look at the project being referenced in this story. The  CIP Project Map Viewer has the status of city projects in your area, which can be searched by address.    3797
