ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
            CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(a)         OVERVIEW

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Sierra Pacific
Development Fund's (the Partnership) Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes
thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

The Partnership currently owns a 94.92% interest in the Sierra Creekside
Partnership, which operates the Sierra Creekside property (the Property) in San
Diego, CA.

(b)         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2000 increased by
approximately $15,000, or 7%, when compared to the corresponding period in the
prior year, primarily due to higher occupancy and rental rates. Occupancy at the
Property increased from 96% at March 31, 1999 to 100% at March 31, 2000.

                                       2
<PAGE>
Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2000 increased by
approximately $28,000, or 22%, in comparison to the same period in 1999. This
increase was principally due to higher maintenance and repair costs and
utilities. In addition, data processing and accounting and auditing costs rose
during the quarter.

Interest expense of approximately $73,000 was recorded during the first quarter
compared to approximately $39,000 for the same period in the prior year. As
stated below, the Partnership refinanced its mortgage loan on the Property
in January 2000.

An extraordinary loss of approximately $46,000 was recorded in the quarter due
to the write-off of deferred loan costs associated with the payoff of the
mortgage loan with Home Federal Savings.

 (c)        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In January 2000, the Partnership paid its loan balance of $1,669,000 to Home
Federal Savings and entered into a loan agreement with General Electric Capital
Corporation (GECC) in the amount of $4,250,000. The lender funded $4,050,000 at
closing and held back $200,000 to be drawn upon to help finance future tenant
improvements and leasing costs. The Partnership received net proceeds of
$2,222,000 as a result of the new loan. The loan is secured by the Property and
bears interest at 2.75% above the GECC Composite Commercial Paper Rate.
Principal and interest payments are due monthly based on a 30-year amortization.
The loan matures January 31, 2005. The majority of the loan proceeds were
distributed to the minority owner of the property, Sierra Mira Mesa Partners
(SMMP).

The Partnership is in an illiquid position at March 31, 2000 with cash of
approximately $82,000 and accrued and other liabilities of approximately
$132,000. However, a source of cash is available through contributions from
SMMP.

The Partnership's primary capital requirements are for the construction of new
tenant space and debt obligations. It is anticipated that these requirements
will be funded from the operations of the Property, the $200,000 tenant
improvement/lease commission holdback and contributions from SMMP.

Inflation:

The Partnership does not expect inflation to be a material factor in its
operations in 2000.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.    ORGANIZATION

In February 1994, Sierra Pacific Development Fund (the Partnership) created a
general partnership (Sierra Creekside Partners) with Sierra Mira Mesa Partners
(SMMP) to facilitate cash contributions by SMMP for the continued development
and operation of the Sierra Creekside property (the Property). The Partnership
Agreement of Sierra Creekside Partners (the Agreement) was amended effective
January 1, 1995 to consider both contributions and distributions when
calculating each partners' percentage interest at January 1 of each year.
Accordingly, on January 1, 2000, the Partnership's interest in Sierra Creekside
Partners was increased from 93.45% to 94.92% to reflect 1999 contributions and
distributions.

2.    BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include
the accounts of the Partnership and Sierra Creekside Partners at March 31, 2000.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

In the opinion of the Partnership's management, these unaudited financial
statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation
of its financial position at March 31, 2000 and results of operations and cash
flows for the periods presented. All adjustments included in these statements
are of a normal and recurring nature. These financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the
Annual Report of the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 1999.

3.    RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Included in the financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2000
and 1999 are affiliate transactions as follows:

                                                MARCH 31

                                         ----------   ----------
           Management fees               $   10,987   $    9,324
           Administrative fees               10,632        8,936

4.    PARTNERS' EQUITY

Equity and net loss per limited partnership unit is determined by dividing the
limited partners' share of the Partnership's equity and net loss by the number
of limited partnership units outstanding, 29,354.

Partners' equity accounts have been adjusted to reflect an allocation of
cumulative net loss to the partners in accordance with the agreement of limited
partnership. This agreement provides that 99% of operating income, gains,
losses, deductions and credits of the Partnership shall be allocated among the
limited partners and 1% be allocated to the general partner.

Prior year balances have not been adjusted because management does not believe
that the effects of these adjustments are significant to the prior year
partners' equity balances.
