The corporation has created a number of policies and practices that have established a framework that provides the public and media with access to a significant amount of information about waterfront revitalization. This framework has been established without any legal requirements to do so, demonstrating that public access to information is not a matter of compliance for Waterfront Toronto but in fact a key part of how the corporation conducts its business.

The Waterfront Toronto board of directors enacted By-law #2 which sets out the policies and procedures for open board and committee meetings. Included in this by-law are provisions for board and board committee meeting notification and accessing meeting minutes. In practice this has meant posting meeting agendas on the corporation's website the day briefing binders are circulated to directors and posting minutes once they are approved. Waterfront Toronto also posts all PowerPoint presentations delivered during board meetings on the corporation's website following the meeting.

• Annotated board and committee agendas are posted on the Waterfront Toronto web site the week prior to each meeting. The annotated agenda includes brief background on each agenda item and reason it is before the board.
• An update on milestone and activities for major waterfront projects is provided by the CEO at each board meeting.
• Quarterly and year-end presentations of financial statements are presented by the CFO at board meetings. Media who are in attendance are provided with copies of the financial presentations. The financial presentations are posted on the Waterfront Toronto web site following the meeting.
• Copies of all other presentations that are made at board and committee meetings are made available to media who attend board and committee meetings. Presentations are also posted on the Waterfront Toronto web site following the meetings.
• Motions approved at board and committee meetings are posted on the Waterfront Toronto web site the day following the meeting.
• Board and board committee meeting minutes are posted on the Waterfront Toronto web site after they have been approved, usually following the next meeting.
• The CEO and/or the board chair are available to speak to the media immediately following board meetings.

The code of conduct of the Corporation forms part of the overall policy framework that governs the Corporation’s business operations. It sets out the standards of behaviour that the Corporation requires its directors, officers and employees to meet.
