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 Sierra Pacific
Development Fund II's (the Partnership) Financial Statements and Notes thereto
appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

The Partnership currently owns three properties; 5850 San Felipe, Sierra
Westlakes, and Sierra Southwest Pointe. In addition, the Partnership holds a
30.17% interest in Sierra Mira Mesa Partners (SMMP).

(b)         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Rental income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 increased by
approximately $90,000, or 5%, in comparison to the same period in 1999,
primarily due to an increase in common area maintenance fees recovery revenue at
5850 San Felipe. Supplemental billings were made in 2000 to recover higher than
anticipated prior year common area maintenance fees. The increase in rental
income is also attributable to higher rental rates and occupancy. Occupancy at
Sierra Southwest Point rose from 85% at September 30, 1999 to 95% at September
30, 2000. At 5850 San Felipe, occupancy rose slightly from 98% to 99% between
the same periods. Sierra Westlakes remained 75% occupied.

                                       2
<PAGE>
Rental income for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 increased by
approximately $17,000, or 3%, principally due to the higher rental rates and
occupancy. This increase was partially offset by lower common area maintenance
fee recovery revenue at Sierra Westlakes, as supplemental billings were made in
the third quarter of 1999 to recover higher than anticipated common area
maintenance fees from a prior period.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 increased by
approximately $143,000, or 13%, when compared to the corresponding period in
1999, largely due to an increase in legal fees associated with the settlement of
a lawsuit against the Partnership (see discussion below). In addition,
maintenance and repairs costs and accounting and auditing fees rose during the
period. Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2000
increased by approximately $50,000, or 15%, primarily due to, among other
factors, higher maintenance and repairs, utilities, administrative costs and
accounting and auditing fees incurred during the quarter.

The Partnership's share of unconsolidated joint venture income increased by
approximately $12,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 when compared
to the corresponding period in the prior year. This increase in income generated
by SMMP was in large part attributable to its share of Sorrento II Partners'
(SIIP) income. SIIP, which SMMP accounts for as an unconsolidated joint venture
investment on the equity method, recorded an increase in income due to, among
other factors, higher common area maintenance fees recovery revenue and a
decrease in ground lease expense during the nine months ended September 30,
2000.

(c)         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In December 1999, a lawsuit was settled against the Partnership that provided
for a complete release of the Partnership, general partners and all affiliates.
The suit related to three loans made to affiliates, two by the Partnership and
one by SMMP. As part of the material terms of the Settlement, S-P Properties,
the general partner of the Partnership, on or before December 31, 2000, will
call and collect the two demand notes with balances of $1,012,698 and
$4,642,334, respectively, on September 30, 2000 and a portion of the SMMP loan
(the date of collection being referred to herein as the "Payment Date"). In the
case of the SMMP loan, the amount due is equal to that percentage of the loan
corresponding to the Partnership's interest in SMMP, which in any event is no
less than thirty percent (30%). The loan proceeds received by the Partnership
will be distributed on a per-unit basis to the limited partners and assignees of
the Partnership of record as of the Payment Date.

The collection and distribution of the two demand notes held by the Partnership
will result in a reduction of equity and notes receivable. The collection and
distribution of the note receivable held by SMMP will ultimately result in a
reduction in equity and investment in unconsolidated joint venture of
approximately $735,000 (30% of SMMP's note receivable balance of $2,451,227).

                                       3
<PAGE>
The Partnership also agreed to pay plaintiff's attorneys' fees of $1,000,000. In
the first quarter of 2000, the Partnership made scheduled payments totaling
$500,000. The remaining $500,000 is due by December 31, 2000.

The Partnership is in an illiquid position as of September 30, 2000 with cash
and billed rents of approximately $293,000 and current liabilities of
approximately $910,000, which includes the remaining legal liability of
$500,000.

The Partnership's primary capital requirement is the remaining legal obligation.
It is anticipated this liability will be contributed to the real estate
investment trust (REIT) currently being organized by CGS Real Estate Company
Inc., an affiliate of the general partner (See Note 5). In the event the REIT is
not formed in time, it is anticipated this obligation would be funded from the
operations of the properties and distributions from SMMP.

Inflation:

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

3.    INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURE

Sierra Mira Mesa Partners (SMMP) was formed in 1985 between the Partnership and
Sierra Pacific Pension Investors '84 (SPPI'84), an affiliate, to develop and
operate the real property known as Sierra Mira Mesa, an office building located
in San Diego, California. The Partnership's initial ownership interest in SMMP
was 51%; the remaining 49% was owned by SPPI'84. Effective December 31, 1996,
the general partners amended the partnership agreement to allow for adjustments
in the sharing ratio each year based upon the relative net contributions and
distributions since inception of each general partner. As of September 30, 2000
the Partnership's interest in SMMP is 30.17%; the remaining 69.83% interest is
owned by SPPI'84.

The consolidated financial statements of SMMP include the accounts of SMMP and
Sorrento I Partners, a majority-owned California general partnership. Summarized
income statement information for SMMP for the nine months ended September 30,
2000 and 1999 is as follows:

4.    PARTNERS' EQUITY

Equity and net income (loss) per limited partnership unit is determined by
dividing the limited partners' share of the Partnership's equity and net income
(loss) by the number of limited partnership units outstanding, 56,674 Class A
and 29,979 Class B.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2000, an amount was transferred between the
partners' equity accounts such that 99% of cumulative operating income, gains,
losses, deductions and credits of the Partnership was allocated among the
limited partners and 1% was allocated to the general partner. Management does
not believe that the effect of this transfer is significant.

5.    PENDING TRANSACTION

CGS Real Estate Company, Inc. (CGS), an affiliate of the general partner, is
continuing the development of a plan which will combine the Partnership's
properties with the properties of other real estate partnerships managed by CGS
and its affiliates. These limited partnerships own office properties, industrial
properties, shopping centers, and residential apartment properties. It is
expected that the acquirer would qualify as a real estate investment trust.
Limited partners would receive shares of common stock from the acquirer, which
would be listed on a national securities exchange. This transaction is subject
to the approval of the limited partners of the Partnership and portions of the
other partnerships. CGS's management filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4
August 14, 2000 relating to the solicitation of consents with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

6.    RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (SAB 101), Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements, which summarizes certain of the SEC staff's views on applying
generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial
statements. The Partnership will adopt the accounting provisions of SAB 101 in
the fourth quarter of 2000. Management believes that the implementation of SAB
