As it read at the time of the proceedings pertinent to this case, the Act provided that the landlord-tenant relationship would continue through a 60-day grace period following the filing of a memorandum of notice certifying that the landlord had taken steps to terminate a tenancy. Until that grace period expired, the tenancy would not be terminated, and the rental accommodations would remain on the rental market. "[T]he date on which the accommodations are withdrawn from rent or lease for purposes of [the Act] is 60 days from the [date of] delivery ... of that [memorandum of] notice to the public entity." (§ 7060.4, former subd. (a).) The Act was amended in 1999 to move the provision just quoted from subdivision (a) to subdivision (b); to extend the grace period to 120 days; and to further extend it to *165 one year for a tenant who is over 62 or disabled and who has lived in the rental unit for at least one year, provided that certain conditions are met. (Stats.1999, ch. 968, § 3.) Under current law, and subject to the exception of more long-term disabled or elderly tenants, the rental accommodations are considered withdrawn from the rental market 120 days after the delivery of the landlord's memorandum of notice to the public entity.
