If the DOT is paying me for renting part of my property for road widening, can i deduct part of my real estate taxes for that portion of land as an expense on Schedule E?

Schedule E is asking me to "enter common expenses" and the only thing that would really apply is Real Estate taxes since DOT is the one renting. Also, they're going to tear down 4 of my full grown pine trees. Can I use that anywhere in this schedule and where?
