Councilmember Brad Lynn reported a January count of 2,494 takeoffs and landings at Lanett Airport and 19,040 gallons of fuel sold, a large increase from 1,600 gallons in January 2025; the council approved a software agreement to manage jet-fuel receipts and invoicing.

Councilmember Brad Lynn, chair of Finance and Airport, told the Lanett City Council on Feb. 2 that a new tracking system at Lanett Airport "tabulated 2,494 basic events (take offs and landings)" for January. Lynn said the airport sold 19,040 gallons of fuel in January 2026 compared with 1,600 gallons in January 2025, and noted an Auburn flight school uses the airport for student training.

At the same meeting the council unanimously approved Resolution 02-26-05 to enter an agreement with World Fuels Software to handle jet-fuel receipts and invoicing. Airport Manager Stapleton told the council the software "was needed to generate receipts and invoices on jet fuel sales." Council members and the city attorney acknowledged staff work on the lease form and related airport materials.

The minutes do not include the World Fuels contract amount or a timeline for full implementation. Council and staff said the software will enable the airport to produce receipts and invoices for fuel sales, which the minutes indicate have increased sharply year over year.
