That document did not show Topgolf as part of the site plans for the redeveloped mall.<\/p>\n<p>That doesn&rsquo;t mean the new Topgolf location is doomed, according to the mall&rsquo;s owners. The new permit filing was just one option on the table for the mall&rsquo;s redevelopment, the company wrote in a statement, meaning the new golf facility could still arrive in Everett in the future.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;At this point, all options remain in play,&rdquo; the company wrote in a statement to The Daily Herald. &ldquo;The pre-application represents one back-up plan.
