You should give at least a 90 day notice or even more if these are valued tenants who have taken care of your home and paid on time. The move should be as painless as possible for them. Again, if they are valued tenants, you will have to say more in your notice other than "be out by the end of the lease, I am not renewing." It would not hurt to explain that you will be reoccupying the property. However, if they have not been good payers and have caused trouble during the lease, it will be enough to notify them the the lease will not be renewed. But think about what you will say if they ask why. It needs to be a response that will result in a smooth move out of a clean, undamaged home.

I'm a little confused. I thought because of the 16 reasons in the Anti Eviction Law I cannot occupy the home. So I can send them a letter and I can say I plan on occupying the home? Or do I send a letter and say I am not renewing the lease?

I think what they said is you can give them a non-renewal of the lease and be sure to give 90 days. Maybe in the notice you would put that the reason you are not renewing the lease is because you will be moving back into your home.

wait you have to give them a notice to quit. I would tell them the reason you are not renewing is because you want to move back into your home. Then when they do not leave you file for eviction.
