Stuart Robinson says he hopes to get a decision on his plans for the development of the land surrounding Fratton Park around the end of this season.
The property developer and PFC president has sent proposals for a new supermarket and improvements to the stadium to the city council.
He told the BBC: 'We've worked very hard over the last six months pulling everything together. There is a lot of work to do but we've outlined some short, medium and long-term objectives which the club will put into operation. They are long overdue.
'The area has been vacant for many years and I think it's important to pull it all together - this is a win for a lot of people. There are some parts of the land to the north which are not included in the plans and we will be looking to redevelop those in the future.
'At the moment we are just focusing on the area that the club will use for future car parking and the retail development.
'It's a big decision for the community, the football club and the council. Hopefully we should be hearing some news on the planning decision in early May.'
What is Pompey's problem? Inconsistency? A squad that's simply not good enough? Complacency? Or something else? Discuss it on the forum.
