CTU_CODE:   5 digit FIPS55 'Place' code for CTU.  As of 2010, these codes have been retired by the  
            federal government.  They are replaced by the GNIS codes below. Note that for townships  
            that wholly incorporate into cities, the same FIPS55 code for the former township will  
            usually be used for the new city. Conversely, GNIS creates a new ID for the new city.
