Ed Hart, state officials expected to meet on plans to reopen Kentucky Kingdom

Posted: Updated:

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- Louisville businessman Ed Hart is expected to meet with state officials Wednesday to talk about plans to re-open Kentucky Kingdom.

Hart's group is the only one known to have submitted a plan.

The state has rejected his two previous plans, but this one doesn't include what had been a big roadblock in the past -- a $30 million loan guarantee from the state.

Hart is proposing to reopen Kentucky Kingdom by 2014.

The state isn't saying yet who, if anyone, will reopen the closed amusement park.
