Are prorated county taxes a separate rental property expense?

My closing ALTA for a rental property has a prorated/adjustments section for county taxes. Can those be included in the property tax category in addition to the amounts reported on my 1098 from the lender? My county taxes were charged out of the escrow account in August and December which I believe is in addition to the $989.31 I paid at closing.

Yes, pro-rated property taxes paid at closing are reported as part of your State and Local Taxes under Itemized Deductions for Schedule A.
