Miami-Dade has long been known for its heat. Tourism publicity photos from the 1960s depict beachgoers enjoying the sun and no shortage of convertibles taking in the county’s balmy weather.
County commissioners sidestepped their own rules for managing growth that require a need for additional industrial space and voted to move the boundary after developers offered to double the amount of a land donation.

Miami-Dade County will host its first-ever Hometown Heroes parade next month, to honor first responders, law enforcement professionals and healthcare workers for their efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic - and every day.
