Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Organization	Organization The Corporation, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Bank and CFS, provides a wide range of banking, financing, fiduciary and other financial services to its clients. The Corporation and the Bank are subject to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies and undergo periodic examinations by those regulatory authorities. CRM, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, which was formed and began operations on May 31, 2016, is a Nevada-based captive insurance company which insures against certain risks unique to the operations of the Corporation and its subsidiaries and for which insurance may not be currently available or economically feasible in today's insurance marketplace. CRM pools resources with several other similar insurance company subsidiaries of financial institutions to spread a limited amount of risk among themselves. CRM is subject to regulations of the State of Nevada and undergoes periodic examinations by the Nevada Division of Insurance.
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Exchange Act. These financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, and all significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Amounts in the prior periods' consolidated financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current period's presentation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and disclosures provided, and actual results could differ. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary for the fair presentation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been included. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Corporation's 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The results of operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year or any other period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Adopted in 2023: Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Topic 326 In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The objective of the ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The ASU supersedes prior GAAP by replacing the incurred loss impairment method with a methodology that reflects lifetime expected credit losses and requires the consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to form loss estimates. In November 2019, the FASB adopted an amendment to postpone the effective date of ASU 2016-13 to January 2023, for some entities, including certain Securities and Exchange Commission filers. As a smaller reporting company, the Corporation was eligible for and elected delayed adoption. The Corporation adopted the standard on January 1, 2023, and recognized a one-time cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, of $1.5 million, or $1.1 million, net of tax effects, of which $1.1 million reflected the establishment of an allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments, and $0.4 million reflected additional allowance related to the loan portfolio. No adjustment was recognized related to the securities portfolio. The quantitative component of the estimate relies on the statistical relationship between the projected value of an economic indicator and the implied historical loss experience among a curated group of peers. The Corporation utilized regression analyses of peer data, in which the Corporation was included, and where observed credit losses and selected economic factors were used to determine suitable loss drivers for modeling the lifetime rates of probability of default (PD). A loss given default rate (LGD) is assigned to each pool for each period based on these PD outcomes. The model fundamentally utilizes an expected discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis for all loan portfolio segments. The DCF analysis is run at the instrument-level and incorporates an array of loan-specific data points and segment-implied assumptions to determine the lifetime expected loss attributable to each instrument. An implicit "hypothetical loss" is derived for each period of the DCF, and helps establish the present value of future cash flows for each period. The reserve applied to a specific instrument is the difference between the sum of the present value of future cash flows and the book balance of the loan at the measurement date. Portfolio segments are the level at which loss assumptions are applied to a pool of loans based on the similarity of risk characteristics inherent in the included instruments, relying on FFIEC Call Report codes. The loss driver for each loan portfolio segment is derived from a readily available and reasonable economic forecast, chiefly the FOMC of the Federal Reserve's projections of civilian unemployment and year-over-year U.S. GDP growth. Forecasts are applied over a four-quarter period and revert to the lookback period's historical mean for the economic indicator over an eight-quarter horizon, on a straight-line basis. The model incorporates qualitative factor adjustments in order to calibrate the model for risk in each portfolio segment that may not be captured through quantitative analysis. Determinations regarding qualitative adjustments are reflective of management's expectation of loss conditions differing from those already captured in the quantitative component of the model. The Corporation evaluates all assets exhibiting potential credit risk, including off-balance sheet exposures on unfunded commitments, and debt securities. Allowances on unfunded commitments utilize a calculated funding rate to estimate the Corporation's future obligations, and applies the overall loss rate assigned to each concurrent pool. Securities backed by U.S. government-related agencies are determined to be zero-credit loss securities. Potential losses on obligations of states, political subdivisions, and corporate bonds and notes are analyzed by management to determine whether any of the losses may be attributable to credit-related factors on an individual basis. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 had an initial impact on the allowance for credit losses on loans of $0.4 million, reflecting changes in the methodology when compared to the allowance for loan losses on loans at December 31, 2022. The increase represents an increase of $0.2 million in the allowance relating to commercial loans, the combined effect of changes to commercial & agricultural and commercial real estate, and an increase of $0.2 million in consumer loans, mostly in relation to indirect auto lending. The remainder of the adoption impact, or $1.1 million, related to the establishment of an allowance for credit losses for unfunded commitments. Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures - Topic 326 In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. The ASU made certain targeted amendments specific to troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) by creditors and vintage disclosure related to gross write-offs. Upon adoption, the Corporation was required to apply the loan and refinancing restructuring guidance to determine whether a modification results in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan, rather than applying the recognition and measurement guidance for TDRs. The ASU also requires companies to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investment in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20. The Corporation adopted the standard prospectively, beginning January 1, 2023, concurrently with the aforementioned ASU 2016-13, and its impact can be found within Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements. The Corporation established a methodology for identifying and reporting the financial impact of modifications made to borrowers who are deemed to be experiencing financial difficulty. Reference Rate Reform - ASC 848 ASU No. 2022-06, Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, was issued in December 2022 and defers the date for which accounting relief can be applied under Topic 848. ASU 2022-06 applies to entities that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The objective of the guidance in Topic 848 is to ease the burden in accounting related to the recognition of the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. A sunset provision was included within Topic 848 based on expectations of when LIBOR would cease being published. The Corporation had adopted the accounting relief provisions of Topic 848 effective October 1, 2020. The amendments in ASU 2022-06 defer the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024, after which entities will no longer be able to apply the accounting relief in Topic 848. ASU 2022-06 was effective for all entities upon its issuance. The adoption of the provisions of Topic 848, as amended, did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements. Accounting Standards Pending Adoption Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements, was issued in October 2023 and modifies the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification, in response to SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplifications, issued on August 17, 2018. The SEC identified several disclosure requirements that overlap with U.S. GAAP, but require incremental information to comply with disclosure standards in Regulations S-X and Regulation S-K. ASU 2023-06 codifies specific amendments to align the codification with SEC regulations. The effective date for each amendment is that date on which each disclosure requirement is removed from Regulation S-K and Regulation S-X. The Corporation anticipates that certain amendments will pertain to the Corporation's financial disclosures or presentation, but cannot determine with certainty which amendments are applicable until removal from Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X. Use of Analogous Accounting Standards Under U.S. GAAP, there is no specific guidance related to government assistance received by a for-profit entity that is not in the form of a loan, income tax credit, or revenue from a contract with a customer. Therefore, the Corporation must rely upon analogous accounting standards to determine appropriate treatment when such circumstances arise. The Corporation accounted for the recognition of the Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERTC) using ASC 958-605, Revenue Recognition for Not-for-Profit entities. ASC 958-10-15-1 specifies that certain Subtopics within ASC 958-605 also apply to business entities. The Corporation considers the recognition of the ERTC to be analogous to the stipulations for "conditional contributions" under ASC 958-605-20. Conditional contributions have at least one barrier needing to be overcome before the recipient is entitled to the assets transferred or promised; there must be a right-of-return to the contributor; and barriers to the condition should be measurable. The Corporation recognized the gross amount of the ERTC through non-interest income during the period in which the barrier was overcome, identified as the period during which amended tax returns were filed. The Corporation incurred and recognized additional income tax expense during the period in relation to its amended tax returns.
Earnings Per Common Share	Basic earnings per share is net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Issuable shares, including those related to directors’ restricted stock shares, are considered outstanding and are included in the computation of basic earnings per share. All outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends are considered participating securities for this calculation. Restricted stock awards are grants of participating securities and are considered outstanding at grant date. Earnings per share information is adjusted to present comparative results for stock splits and stock dividends that occur.
Fair Value Measurement	Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date. Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The Corporation used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value on a recurring basis: Available for Sale Securities: The fair values of securities available for sale are usually determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs), or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities' relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3 inputs). Equity Investments: Securities that are held to fund a deferred compensation plan and securities that have a readily determinable fair market value, are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value included in earnings. The fair values of equity investments are determined by quoted market prices (Level 1 inputs). Individually Analyzed Loans: At the time a loan is considered individually analyzed, it is valued at the lower of cost or fair value. Individually analyzed loans carried at fair value have been partially charged-off or receive specific allocations as part of the allowance for credit loss accounting. For collateral dependent loans, fair value is commonly based on real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, typically resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Impaired loans are analyzed on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly. OREO: Assets acquired through or in lieu of loan foreclosures are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. Fair value is commonly based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Appraisals for both collateral dependent loans and OREO are performed by certified general appraisers (commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Corporation. Once received, appraisals are reviewed for reasonableness of assumptions, approaches utilized, Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice and other regulatory compliance, as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. Appraisals are generally completed within the previous 12 month period prior to a property being placed into OREO. On impaired loans, appraisal values are adjusted based on the age of the appraisal, the position of the lien, the type of the property and its condition. Derivatives: The fair values of interest rate swaps are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2 inputs). Derivatives are traded in an over-the-counter market where quoted market prices are not always available. Therefore, the fair values of derivatives are determined using quantitative models that utilize multiple market inputs. The inputs will vary based on the type of derivative, but could include interest rates, prices, and indices to generate continuous yield or pricing curves, prepayment rates, and volatility factors to value the position. The Corporation also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counter-party's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Corporation has considered the impact of any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings. Although the Corporation has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize credit default rate assumptions (Level 3 inputs).

ASU No. 2022-06, Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, was issued in December 2022 and defers the date for which accounting relief can be applied under Topic 848. ASU 2022-06 applies to entities that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The objective of the guidance in Topic 848 is to ease the burden in accounting related to the recognition of the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting.

ASU 2022-06 was effective for all entities upon its issuance. The adoption of the provisions of Topic 848, as amended, did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Pending Adoption

Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative

ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements, was issued in October 2023 and modifies the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification, in response to SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplifications, issued on August 17, 2018. The SEC identified several disclosure requirements that overlap with U.S. GAAP, but require incremental information to comply with disclosure standards in Regulations S-X and Regulation S-K. ASU 2023-06 codifies specific amendments to align the codification with SEC regulations. The effective date for each amendment is that date on which each disclosure requirement is removed from Regulation S-K and Regulation S-X. The Corporation anticipates that certain amendments will pertain to the Corporation's financial disclosures or presentation, but cannot determine with certainty which amendments are applicable until removal from Regulation S-K or Regulation S-X.

Use of Analogous Accounting Standards

Under U.S. GAAP, there is no specific guidance related to government assistance received by a for-profit entity that is not in the form of a loan, income tax credit, or revenue from a contract with a customer. Therefore, the Corporation must rely upon analogous accounting standards to determine appropriate treatment when such circumstances arise. The Corporation accounted for the recognition of the Employee Retention Tax Credit (ERTC) using ASC 958-605, Revenue Recognition for Not-for-Profit entities. ASC 958-10-15-1 specifies that certain Subtopics within ASC 958-605 also apply to business entities.

The Corporation considers the recognition of the ERTC to be analogous to the stipulations for "conditional contributions" under ASC 958-605-20. Conditional contributions have at least one barrier needing to be overcome before the recipient is entitled to the assets transferred or promised; there must be a right-of-return to the contributor; and barriers to the condition should be measurable. The Corporation recognized the gross amount of the ERTC through non-interest income during the period in which the barrier was overcome, identified as the period during which amended tax returns were filed. The Corporation incurred and recognized additional income tax expense during the period in relation to its amended tax returns.

Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per share is net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Issuable shares, including those related to directors’ restricted stock shares, are considered outstanding and are included in the computation of basic earnings per share. All outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends are considered participating securities for this calculation. Restricted stock awards are grants of participating securities and are considered outstanding at grant date. Earnings per share information is adjusted to present comparative results for stock splits and stock dividends that occur.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Corporation used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value on a recurring basis:

Available for Sale Securities: The fair values of securities available for sale are usually determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1 inputs), or matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities' relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3 inputs).

Equity Investments: Securities that are held to fund a deferred compensation plan and securities that have a readily determinable fair market value, are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value included in earnings. The fair values of equity investments are determined by quoted market prices (Level 1 inputs).

Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value.

Appraisals for both collateral dependent loans and OREO are performed by certified general appraisers (commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by the Corporation. Once received, appraisals are reviewed for reasonableness of assumptions, approaches utilized, Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice and other regulatory compliance, as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. Appraisals are generally completed within the previous 12 month period prior to a property being placed into OREO.
