An expanded Florida law opening church and school land to housing development, new flights between Miami and Caracas, and expanded grocery delivery that has arrived in South Florida are among the top stories from the Miami Herald on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Here are key takeaways:<\/p>\n

\u2022 A recent amendment to Florida\u2019s Live Local Act now makes it easier to build affordable housing<\/a> on land owned by school districts, municipalities and houses of worship. The change lets these entities partner with developers without needing special waivers from local government, though some officials and religious leaders have raised concerns about long-term impacts on congregations.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Winn-Dixie has expanded its same-day grocery delivery partnership with Amazon<\/a> to the Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Florida Keys and West Palm Beach areas. More than 15,000 Winn-Dixie items are available on Amazon, and Amazon return kiosks are now inside Winn-Dixie stores.<\/p>\n

\u2022 American Airlines has started selling tickets for daily nonstop flights between Miami and Caracas<\/a>, scheduled to begin April 30. The flights mark the first direct commercial service between the two countries in seven years.<\/p>\n
