Bournemouth have put in an application for the temporary south stand at the Vitality Stadium to remain in place.
Planning permission for the Ted MacDougall Stand - constructed following the Cherries' promotion to the Sky Bet Championship in 2013 — required it to be removed and the land restored within five years.
With that deadline approaching, the Premier League club have made a request to Bournemouth Borough Council for the condition to be removed in order to maximise attendances.
Bournemouth chief executive Neill Blake said the application would not affect the club's long-term plans to move to a new ground.
