It appears that the local politicians don't have enough to do and managed to spend time collecting signatures from dancers in Villa Urquiza to officially label it the capital of the tango dance for various reasons. This only gives weight to those who want to further the style as the only "authentic" tango.
The forum La Mesa de Cafe on TodoTango has a discussion on this by Daniel Rezk, who is an organizer of the Thursday night Milonga in Club Gricel. He makes some good points. http://www.todotango.com/Spanish/la_pasion/lamesa_respuestas.aspx?pid=601689
