During his tenure, the municipality of Wölfersheim signed two town twinning agreements with L'Isle-sur-le-Doubs in France and Rabca in Slovakia. Kötter was shaped politically in particular by the fight against the right-wing NPD, which celebrated great successes in Wölfersheim at the end of the 1980s. In 2016, the NPD did not move into the Wölfersheim municipal parliament for the first time, which earned the municipality nationwide recognition. According to the local press, Wölfersheim has developed into a “model municipality” during Kötter's tenure, “not only because of a solid budget policy (...), but also because of an innovative spirit that can be linked to special services by the municipality and a transparent management style. "

On September 20, 2017, Kötter was elected full-time First Deputy for six years by the Chamber of the FrankfurtRheinMain regional association. He took up his term on March 1, 2018.
