San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria says he ordered city crews to clear a large homeless encampment in the city’s Midway district to avoid a potential health crisis. Then, a new state effort to retrofit thousands of houses in high-risk fire areas, offering up to $40,000 to cover the cost of the changes. And San Diego is the first county in the state to launch the program with 500 backcountry residences from Dulzura to Campo. And, after a long legal battle, thousands city workers will have access to guaranteed pension benefits. Later, a company with Burger King franchises in San Francisco owes nearly $2 million for wage theft. Why are the workers still waiting for recompensation? Plus, the San Diego History Center's exhibit, “Celebrate San Diego: Black History & Heritage” will showcase the rich history of Black San Diego . Finally, KPBS has a short list of five noteworthy works of visual art that are on view in San Diego County in February.
