Eviction question Help!

Ok so I have a small Commercial property that I had a great tenant in it when I purchased it. In December I signed a Month to month lease with another tenant. Im new to renting and Ill be the first to admit, I did not do a good job and asking this tenant the correct questions and looking into his past. Now I do not want renew his lease for several reasons. But my question is do I have to give him a reason? Can I just give him a notice that Im not renewing his lease, and give him 30 days to move out?

My reasons for evicting:

always more than 10 days late on rent

lied to me about the business he was going to be operating

lied to me about having employees (one of which is sex offender and my building I own next him has a has a tenant that runs a business dealing with children (( Ive talked to the sheriffs office and there isnt anything they can do))

Property has several junk cars on blocks and is very unsightly.

If I have to give a reason are these legal reason to not renew his lease? 

Ive never had to kick someone out of my buildings so any advice would be great! Thanks!
