Ms Brady said groups of youths were terrorising locals and destroying community property despite terrific efforts by police.

"The old people are frightened, they're [the youths] going around to houses and taking grog and food out of the houses and this goes on all the time," she said.

"The police, they do their job. The kids are let out for home detention and they're still doing it."

The late Cobar firefighter Daniel Howard, who died in the New Occidential Hotel fire, and a friend donated a bus to the Cobar and District Rugby Union Football Club.

The team bus was taken by youths and destroyed Ms Brady said.

"They hot-wired it, took it out to the reservoir, cut the tyres and destroyed it," she said. "The rugby union boys are very upset by that."

Ms Brady said youths also vandalised a memorial park bench and plaque which was erected in Drummond Park for late Cobar resident Stevie Shipman.

Cr Brady has organised a public rally at the next Local Court sitting date on November 12.

"What we have to do is go to the government, I'm seeing Kevin Humphries (Barwon MP) on Tuesday and I'll try and see Troy Grant (deputy premier) and Brad Hazzard (Attorney General)," she said.

"They need to give magistrates more power to really make a harsh sentence on these kids."

Ms Brady said the problem was not the fault of police or the magistrates, but stricter sentencing needed to be reinstated.

"We've had enough and the government have got to do it," Ms Brady said.

"I won't take no for an answer."

Cobar is a great community-minded town, Ms Brady said, who rallied together in times of need.

"They do wonderful things and then these mongrels then come and they can do what they like and they can get away with it," she said.

"I'm not going to let these little cows ruin our wonderful town and upset the people."

Ms Brady said even the most simple things like walking home at night and leaving cars out the front were avoided because of crime.

She believed parents should be held accountable for the damage their children had caused and should have the children taken away if they could not control them.

"Let those people that say that's not right open their homes and take these children for a fortnight," she said.

Ms Brady has come out in support of Dubbo mayor Mathew Dickerson and his quest for harsher sentencing.

"I would like every mayor in New South Wales to hold a protest meeting and do exactly what we're doing in Cobar," she said.

"Stand up and make New South Wales a better place to live."
