This merger of a notice to cure and a notice to quit into one required notice — the "notice to cure or vacate" — under the 1980 and 1985 Rental Housing Acts leaves no room for the § 45-1402 timing requirement when § 45-2551(b) applies to the termination of a month-to-month tenancy. By eliminating the need for — indeed, the validity of — a separate notice to quit when a landlord gives notice to cure or vacate, the 1980 Act and its successor, the 1985 Rental Housing Act governing this case, have altogether eliminated the applicability — to the landlord — of any statutory provision, such as § 45-1402, that provides rules governing only "notices to quit" as such.7 *Page 681
