A state audit uncovered the discrepancies.
From 2007 to 2011, state auditors say it was busy enough for thousands of tax dollars to disappear without raising suspicion.
The money disappeared on John Patterson's watch. He ran the Warren County Airport from 2006 to September of 2011.
Some of the missing money came from hangar rentals. The money came in but apparently never made it to the trustees office.
About $4,000 of those missing dollars came from the rental of homes the airport owns on the edge of its property.
FOX 17 News tried to talk with John Patterson about these discrepancies at his new job as manager of the Clarksville-Montgomery County Airport. He wasn't in his office and declined to talk with us when contacted by his staff.

LOUISVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The Blount (blunt) County sheriff's office says preliminary results of autopsies on the bodies of a couple found dead in their home in Louisville (LEW'-ihs-vil) show their deaths are consistent with murder-suicide.
Marian O'Briant said in an email that it appears 54-year-old Steven Adkins shot 53-year-old Rebecca Adkins, then shot himself.
O'Briant said a family member found the bodies Sunday night. It wasn't clear how long they had been dead.
